Greetings everyone, shells are some of the things we can find in beaches and rivers, it is also gives a unique and wonderful views of the place and areas. All over the World, shells contains different kinds of shapes, designs, colors and sizes. For today's black and white entry by #monomad Challenge, allow me to share some of the shells can be found here in the Philippines particularly here in the Province of Misamis Oriental. But this things makes me more amazed because it can be found in dry land. Not in the coastal areas and rivers but it is found at the top of the Mountain, this can make me questioned of myself how did it came here.

The first shells I found was this one. I don't know what are the names of it but for me it is very unique because of its designs, shapes and sizes. Using my Phone I carefully captured in macro ways so that the sells lines and surface can be clearly to see. It contains a round lines on its surface with sharp edge and curvy lines near at the edge. Under in this very small shell is a very shiny surface and a very sharp tip near at the Shell's mouth. #### 📸 A Very Tiny Shell shaped like A Fan: ![IMG_20260618_164635.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/EokdAzqnmLJU9QQZBhiiMdt13LEAbXjSs2MsEPuM5wMSXfnDB4tFHDDc4yDuJSk42zW.jpg) ![IMG_20260618_164618.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/Eoke4nTLi6XF7VwoYdPpGtvXVJPPKxDfmh7UtukERCUjYzM1j7nxGnd1hnQTM7QrkZL.jpg) Here in our country, we called this kind of shell `Kinhason`. The meat contains inside of this small shell is can be eaten and one of the exotic food. The shapes and designs of the thing is very unique because it is like a Fan with curvy lines at the top of the shells. At the tip of the shells also contains a cave like on which the meat from this thing hide and sticking so it wont easily pulls out. The tip of the shells also contains a curvy line and a sharp edge. #### 📸 A Very Tiny Shell Called `Burnay`: ![IMG_20260618_165049.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/EoGxumn7o2gwUjeggz6MC1Fm3KgLHPZ2mLX53XSx96LPsGVgy3KD69XQaPkDv3a4V2r.jpg) ![IMG_20260618_165035.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/Eo8RpGnUSKNNy2iFRgUMyE2Wer2P3DPWFmqpajanCngaQ97c6Yz9GtPkDqpQypebYL9.jpg) Every place has its own name of this shell but here in the Province, we called it Burnay. But did you see some difference between the first picture? The line marks in Side ways going to the tip or edge of the shell. The edge and tip of this thing is very shinny but very sharp also and the Sizes is just like a button. #### 📸 A Rare Kind of Shell Called, `Talaba`: ![IMG_20260618_164801.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/EoyRRRFZmq2fhrmYUjSRVyyfG2hJrjGyoKPWgqL4dD1w5Y67VbMR2vNct2sJRkndzM8.jpg) ![IMG_20260618_164814.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/daily.life/Eoc74xyEgjY6miKR655CfRwV6gyqffro62BMcSTCbbGHNpXJZraW81TTgpkjbTiK5SB.jpg) Talaba shell is also one of the exotic food here in the Country. The shape of this thing is hexagonal with a sharp and pointed edges. Under the shell is a very shinny surface and just like Burnay the sizes of this thing is just like a button. At the top of the shell is also pointed with rough surface and not contains wavy line marks. There are lots of shells that are still not yet discovered, and its expectedly that the designs are also very unique and attractive.
