I like hearing you talk about the shells. I love how excited you get with certain types of shells, for example, the deep sea scallops. I am missing you talking to us. I still love the video. I think you have the best shelling channel on RU-vid and your channel is greatly under appreciated.

I truly appreciate your wonderful feedback. I'll always continue to include my normal style of talking to the camera while filming, but sometimes I like to switch it up to capture to try to capture a mood. What excites me most about what I am creating here, is the opportunity to share all of these experiences with the world; finding ways to get folks to care about some of the things that I care about 💙 Thanks so much for watching!

"There is no better experience of finding shells on a beach during the summer..." Your opening statement of this video really says it all. Watched this whole episode and didn't find the need to fast forward or jump around. I just relaxed and let you lead the way...and thanx for letting me tag along...in 4K, of course...

I am a swfl resident that has the pleasure of shelling Sanibel Island and surrounding areas. Never would I have thought to go to a place such as Main. What can I say? I’m extremely partial to my tropical and subtropical shell species. However, seeing the beauty and the mystique of the area you chose to film, definitely makes me feel some wanderlust for new places. Maybe my shelling addiction will carry me to places such as this in the future. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for such a lovely episode. As an artist, the very unique palette, textures created by the salt and calcification and the rugged quality of Maine shells is endlessly inspiring. The Iceland scallop fossil is astonishing. I actually prefer the limited spoken word in your videos, as it creates for me, a sense of calm and wonder, as if one is there in person.

I appreciate your feedback! It appears that my viewers are split between this style, and my normal style with live narration. I believe I only have a handful of videos where I intentionally exclude narration in an attempt to create the mood you mentioned. I do find, joy and pleasure creating both styles. Thanks so much for watching!

So pleased the mussels got showcased, they are beautiful. What was the small joined white/nacre looking shell and the bigger joined shell with one side rippled white please, maybe an oyster? Thank you so much for sharing.

Lovely! Simply stunning beach views ❤ love the transformations upon cleaning! Have you tried Magic Acid? It works in my experience just like muriatic acid but w/o the skin burn risk 👍🏼 With my kiddos I was all but happy to switch. Happy shelling and have a great summer!

Truely enjoyed that beach❣️! So much to look thru, 👀. Love when you stop to do a screen shot. Gives me time to hunt to. And that red sand! I would have taken an oz of that to display on a shelf in a pretty little vial/bottle. I have sand from the phillipines that a coworker brought back for me many yrs ago. Still have it! That little rippling water was awesome on that puddle/inlet?, 👀❤️. Perfect timing. Dumb question, what is done with the muriatic acid afterwards? Is it reusable?

Hello, this sand can be found in a few locations along the Maine coast, and throughout New England, and is due to the presence of the mineral garnet. The red sand featured in this video is from Cape Elizabeth, Maine! Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the beautiful video. I usually clean my sand dollars in hydrogen peroxide, they don't seem to get as brittle. Sometimes just leave in the sun until they are completely white. I use bleach on my shells, sometimes it leaves a chalky appearance especially on fighting conchs. Any suggestions anyone? Agreed that shells look great when they are wet!
@solaceinshelling6552
