True Colors Thursday... Silver

There are tons of silver fish in the sea and although I am a marine biologist I know very little about them! Sometimes you come across a 'baitball' which is a giant swarm of silvery fish that I call 'lotta little fish'! It is mesmerizing to watch and hard to really capture in a still picture. This was taken on Horseshoe Reef right off of Key Largo where I live. (if you click on the pic you will be able to see the silver a little better!)

I swim around with a camera constantly but never take pictures of silvery fish unless there is something unusual about them. Notice this one is missing a tail! I saw this at Molasses Reef also right here off Key Largo!

Aside from the sea life There is Moose's silver collar (at least it was silver back when it was new!)




















The back sides of my lab key chain and 'inedible apple' phone.




















A pretty pretty antique ring from somewhere in my family (actually it is white gold) but it passes for silver!


















A big block bookend that is waiting for a bookshelf on which to sit.
















A coat hook that is waiting to be hung.



















And of course the MooseMobile!

This Meme is hosted by Blue and coincidentally (or not?) next week's color will be blue! I know I said silver was my favorite color but it is really a tie with Blue! There is lots of blue in the sea, so stay tuned to see what I might find!
