Cemetery of seashells

It was a beautiful day today. Just perfect for a walk to the sea. The local soccer team was playing a match on the near football ground and some kids were running up and down the pier. Some years ago they have deepened the sea in this point and millions of seashells were dug out to the surface, so the place got the name "cemetery of seashells". It is a popular spot and offers some nice scenery as well. Sitting on the seashells path I was trying to sketch en plain air ...

So this is the seashell beach in Santa Katarina... I recognized the place immediately :)
