 Sand Dollars found on the beach in Morro Bay.
The middle one is only a 1/2 and shows the beautiful pattern inside. This was taken in my home. I tried setting it up on my light table but the colors changed badly. I turned off the light and used a desk light for lighting.
I used my Canon 28-70mm Macro lens with a 4+ and a 2+ close-up lenses.
I adjusted the levels, colors, and unsharp mask.

I like the reflections. It might have been nice to see more of them and instead a bit taken off the shop. Nice shot with good detail.

edit: gosh did I really say that? I meant "off the top".

I like this idea, but I think the whole reflection should be included, and the background looks blue instead of white.

O love the composition with the reflections. I think a little more exposure would be better. Still, lots of nice texture and soft beuaty here. 8
