What were your feelings or impressions when taking this photo of sea glass?
I saw it lying amongst the pebbles on the strand line. I couldn't believe my eyes.
This colour is rare here and I sometimes find really small pieces .
This piece measures 6 inches and is 1/2 an inch thick.
The sea glass is perfectly rounded and looks heart shaped.
This is really old glass.
