Great job! I loved this. The clarity in the water, the perspective, the colors, the illusion of distance, the movement of the water, the grandeur of the sky, the rays of light. It all works together and makes this one of my top 3 in this challenge.

I love the composition and how the sea is out of focus.

I'm a huge fan of the idea, the composition and the colours, but the noise in the upper half of the photo, in the water and sky really distract for me. It also looks as though you've a bit of dust on your lens or sensor.

Yes, you found just about everything in this image. Good one. (er, wish that shell was off to one side or the other...) 7

Absolutely AWESOME shot!!! The DOF is perfect, the colors are rich and bright, the sky is great, and the crepuscular rays add even more to the shot. :D Well done!

VERY, very well done. The shallow depth of focus on just the shell is great, with the waves OOF. You have perfect lighting and contrast here, and the forboding clouds with sunbeams really pushes the emotive feeling of the whole image. 10

that's superb as far as colour, light and perspective is concerned...I cannot wait for the day when rules will allow us to clone out sensor dust, as I am sure you feel the same way...lovely, the rays at the back are great

There's something weird about the blurred background, but the foreground looks really good.

Nice perspective! (You should probably clean that sensor, though). I won't deduct points because of those smudges.
