I work so hard to get these photos. I look forward to a day when I can get some proper lenses and a camera undamaged by sea salt or plagued by sensor issues. He persisted.

Across from “The Caves” beach on west Bay street, a roadside vendor was selling shells and I asked if I could take a photo. The shell appears as part of the Bahamas Coat of Arms.
King Helmet Conch, Cassis tuberosa, under December sky.
I’ve used this shell many times, as you can tell. I inherited it from my mother during her time working with shells for her own art when she was in her 20’s. It has become one of the centerpieces on my dining room table.
Tutufa bubo, common name for the “giant frog snail” or “giant frog shell”. I take photos of these shells because there was a time when they were so common you could come back with a handful just by going on a shoreline stroll. Today, they are rare and can be seen only in the main public library in downtown Nassau. For years the upstairs section of the library, which used to serve as the first prison, has been closed due to renovations. At some point in the future, I endeavor to get permission to borrow the rarest and photograph them on the beach.
Its easy to get nice photos on Cabbage Beach, and I often look at the sepia images from the 19th Century when people came here in what would be considered formal dress with parasols for the women and top hats for the men.
I found this tree a short distance from where Bahamian veterans of both World Wars are buried in the mausoleum dedicated to their service on Infant View Road. The tree is a poinciana that has lost all its foliage for the cooler months, soon to return to full bloom with beautiful flowers. I decided to color the photo to illustrate the horrors of The Great War and the conflict to follow. Arendt called it the Banality of Evil.
