An intricate Sea Shell

The sea shell was given to me by an old Cuban fisherman who lived in the beach three years ago. He told me he found it that possible fisherman with harpoons had brought it up from the ocean floor and not able to get the fish removed so they just left the shell on the beach. Illegally I brought the shell back to Canada with a very potent smell coming form the inside. I was sure I would be able to rite the shell of the smell. After many try’s and given of suggestion the shell kept on smelling even after three years and I was not able to keep it indoors.
This summer I made the decision to give it back to the water. I sadly took it on a canoe trip and watching it sink to the bottom of the lake.
Now I am left with the photos of this natural wonder of the sea and wished I had not removed it from its environment in the first place. I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I do.
