    One of those window glasses that are usually put on toilet windows that have this bumpy surface on one side. In the photo there are card headlights or street lights shining outside.

    P.S. If I'm right someone else go ahead, I couldn't find any suitable images i can throw up..

    Bingo. It's a window pane at changing rooms by Oranmore Astro pitch with floodlight on other side lightening it up.

    I could be wrong here of course, but I unwittingly took a very similar photo a few years back.

    My guess is...........

    This photo was taken at night, pointed to the sky, while it was snowing and with a flash ?

    Good effort, very close, but not quite there!

    Clue: It's taken indoors!

    It looks like smoe wood- branches from roses or similar.
    Or a very macro-ed shot of clothing- knitware or similar

    Its not a shell from a beach. It is part of a flower but it wasn't dried artifically. The last shot was from above and the earlier shots from the side.

    Should I say what it is?
