Challenge:From Above IV (Advanced Editing VII) Camera:Nikon D7000 Location: John D. MacArthur Beach State Park Date: Mar 5, 2015 Aperture: 3.8 ISO: 100 Shutter: 1/160 Date Uploaded: Mar 6, 2015
What a lovely little crab, you've captured it nicely with a shallow DOF isolating him from the sand background, I disagree with one of your commenters, the eye looks in good sharp focus, exactly how it should be, the problem is that the detail on the shoe canvas competes. It's a shame his eye is obscured by sand it makes it feel rather painful!
What I don't like is that the shoe dominates the crab and the image as a whole, I feel there is a strong argument for a judicial crop close to the crab's leg, a square would probably work well, there is just too much shoe and too much distracting detail in it. I like that the crab forms a diagonal within the image it strengthens the composition.
