I staged a single-shot macro session using some of the collection of tiny colorful shells. How small..? I placed them in an oyster shell to provide a size comparison.

This is another image using my DIY Speedlight diffuser made from a large cottage cheese container. The particulars of this image are a Nikon Z6 camera with a Nikon Nikkor 105mm S mount macro lens in manual mode, set at f/18, 1/60 sec., ISO-200, and diffused Nikon SB-800 Speedlight flash at 1/8 power duration.

Great project Sippy. What method did you use to color the shells?

Snappin053, It wasn't me and I can't imagine the poor guy living in India that spends his day coloring shells smaller than a fingernail. I bought an assortment of 175 colored shells at Hobby Lobby for $5.00.
