Paper Nautiluses are the thin, translucent and very fragile shell-like egg cases of the Argonautiidae, a small family of pelagic octopi which spend their lives free-floating, drifting near the surface of the world’s tropical seas. The females “spin” these beautiful shells using 2 of their 8 legs that are specialized to grip and secrete the material, one strand at a time, essentially weaving these amazing structures. She then enters the shell partially, clutching it to her body and protecting her precious cargo. When they hatch, she discards the shell which normally ends up bashed into a zillion pieces when the currents eventually wash it up on land somewhere. Occasionally, however, discarded egg cases wash up by the hundreds, basically unscathed, a real bonanza for collectors of natural curiosities. There are only about 6 species of Argonauts worldwide.

Cotswold Collection / Sometimes for no good reason, we seem not to make the grade we set for ourselves, or that others set for us; but that doesn’t mean that what we do achieve has no worth. These sycamore seeds failed to contribute to the next generation of sycamores, but as the early morning light is caught passing through their tattered blades, they exhibit a beauty of their own that will probably last longer and allow them greater “achievement” than many of their siblings. / In nature – nothing is wasted.

I just couldn’t resist taking a few snaps of these gladioli today as they sat on the fireplace with the afternoon sun shining through their delicate petals …

Last summer (2009) I found this gladiolus on a field near Apensen in northern Germany. I was fascinated by its soft colour, the details in the petals and the light shinig through. / /
