Love the colors and textures here. I like how she's 'secreted away' so that she can study. Well done!

Is there more than one shell ?
Yes, each petal of the flower is one shell, hand made with glue...so are many many shells in one flower.
There is one photo more at SBS where perhaps you can see the hand work done.
Thanks, lovely work.
This work is done by a poor community, where small shells brought by sea are washed, glued one by one to form the flower and placed a wire cable. It is mostly done by the women of the fishing community and is a way to increase family income with something that is given free by the sea.
Very artistic, and great idea. Seem a little dark though.
The roses made of shells are very interesting JannaR

Fishnet?
No, fishnet would not be on them, as that is what was actually photographed.
Fisherman?
There is a fisherman in the photo, so that would be off theme.
Catchall?
No
Watercooler?
No
Waterworks?
no
Manhandled?
No one has guessed it yet.
Internet?
close
The word is:
Network
It's a good one, but you are supposed to wait until someone got it right, or maybe revealed by the Mod?
from comments:
BeSea: When are we supposed to put in the answer if it hasn't been guessed so that we can judge the word use as it relates to the photo taken? (1 day 1 hr ago)
Contest Moderator: Good question, how about:
after 5 wrong guesses, or after 3 days but no later than 24 hours before closing?

I think some comments are absolutely not necessary here...
I received a private message from a colleague this site, very strange by the way, telling me to take care with the comments that I do - especially with the praise - and I clearly know this will always take my photos for the last place, I do not care and I'm not here to win or lose but learn and make friends. I think we are free to make good comments that make people get excited and do not give up or lose interest in photography or for participation here. Sure, help improve, but there are ways and ways to talk things out. No need to put this post in the photo as competitor, thus influencing the other vote. I know many are here only for the competition and are really playing with people, playing without any scruples and their only purpose is to make that the photos will be deleted or receive bad grades. In this way, many good photos are at the end and the other start. Ok, some deserve first places.. I'm not generalizating. Look, I'm not talking about my work - my photos, and I do not care if after this post I will be deleted from the site. I just believe that certain standards have to be reviewed here. A good week for everyone. And if I will be deleted ... I stay with good friends that I met here.
I generally try to vote before reading the comments. If everybody says that every photo is wonderful with no constructive criticism, there is really no point in commenting at all. Praising everything reduces the value of your opinion. The objective here is to learn, not to influence votes. I do not comment unless something strikes me as particularly good (to my eye and taste), or a comment on what I think is wrong or could be improved. If an entry is really, really bad, there is no point in saying anything. The votes will tell.
