Coldwaterjohn's photos with the keyword: razor shells

The west coast beaches of the Outer Hebridean Islands are littered with thousands of razor shells. These were collected from the beach at Valtos, on the west coast of the beautiful island of Islay.

Yes, they're ugly, but they are excellent containers to hold a selection of home grown herbs closer than the vegetable garden. The pallets they rest on, prevent all but pole-vaulting rabbits reaching the produce!
