Critique Club Comment:

I really liked this one a lot. The green grabs you and offsets the sand and shell nicely. Composition is very good, though I would have preferred the zipper to lead from the corner rather than the edge. The shell might have been better placed in the center of the spread of the zipper, more towards the crossing of 1/3 lines, or a second object placed there. Regardless, the shell feels like it's too close to the edge given all the sand. As I mentioned below, I'd also like to have had the green on the top zipper pushed back so that it exposed the teeth as with the zipper below.

A fine image that I gave a 7. A very deserving top 10.

Cool idea. Would have liked to see some of the green pulled away from the left side where it splits.
