A mussel in shallow water – above and below the water’s surface by Laura Georgi Tier- und Ladschaftsfotografie

A large, shimmering pink shell lies in the ankle-deep water of a light-coloured
sandy beach. The photograph was taken exactly at the water’s surface,
so that the image is divided into two halves: at the top, a blue sky with a few
small clouds, a rolling wave and the strip of light-coloured sand behind it; at the bottom,
the clear water with its ribbed sandy seabed. The dividing line runs across the image as a fine,
pale edge.

The shell itself glows in shades of pink, apricot and creamy white, and underwater
its shape continues as a softer reflection.

Strictly speaking, it is not a mussel, but the shell
of a large sea snail, a winged snail. It only develops its characteristic
flared pink lip after several years, once it has
reached full size. Until then, the shell is plain and pointed.

As a wall hanging, the motif is warm, bright and instantly recognisable. Pink, sandy beige
and sky blue form a gentle combination that makes small rooms appear cosy
. It is particularly well-suited to bathrooms, bedrooms, guest rooms and
holiday flats, as well as spa and wellness areas, beauty salons, medical practices,
waiting rooms, hotels and travel agencies. On acrylic glass, the water appears clear and
shimmering; on canvas, it looks softer and warmer.

A gift for beach lovers, shell collectors, globetrotters and anyone who
enjoys maritime motifs in soft colours.
