For a first timer (intentionally collecting), how's this? I was really pleased, and found myself to be quite lucky!

These are from I think Fisherman's Beach in Collaroy, Australia, which is in the Northern Beaches Region. It is a marine reserve, so no shelling or collecting stuff, but collecting glass, or plastics is recommended, and helpful! I also went out on the rocks to look at all the live shells. They looked very cute moving around, and were quite beautiful.
