You have a great concept here and I think with a little more work it would have been a great photograph. It just doesn't work for me that much, can't place my eye on it exactly. However, I think it's either not perfectly in focus and/or maybe just needed some USM to sharpen it up a bit.

Very nice design on the shell. Would love to have a photo session with that shell, looks very photogenic.

You might want to look at Edward Weston's Nautilus. This one looks out of focus and needs different lighting.

A bit grainy for my taste. Nice otherwise though.

It is very grainy and noisy - intentional? Also, the focus doesn't look quite right.
