She Sell Sea Shell at the Sea Shore

Sea shell and coral have always facinate me with its texture and colours. In Sabah, I always go to the local market to see all this interesting sea shell and coral being display by the local seller.

For those creative people, it has been used as part of the media for painting which resulted in fantastic and esthetic arts. For interior decorators as a decorative items for the house and for those who have acquarium with beautiful fishes, this is some of the ornament that can be found in their aquarium.

The beautiful colour of the sea snail.
This is a biggest sea snail that i have found. The colour and texture is interesting.

Some of the decorative items from the sea.

I always love the coral.
It interesting especially when you travel to see all this product from the nature to be sold. For the local people, it is nothing special. For us who are not staying near to the sea, it something beautiful that mother earth provide.
Another point to ponder, will tourism be the cause of extinction of the flora or fauna species?
Be smart when you travel.
