Love the warm golden tones in this composition. Shells and the beach always invoke warm thoughts - and the golden hue of this shell compliments the thought. Details & lighting are wonderful. Arrangement of the major element is pleasing to the eye for the eye just follows the lines of the spiral on the shell as it curls inward. A lovely nature-found 6 nestled in the sand.
Juli, this is such a lovely photo - the depth of field is just right, I like how all the outer edges fade and melt into the background, gives the inner "6" that much more impact. Congratulations on a deserved top 10 - so glad to see this was one of yours!
I loved seeing this one in the challenge. It was so arty and subtle. And it did very well! A top 10! That is awesome. Nice job getting this beautiful photo.
This is a beautiful shot, Julianne, and congrats on your top 10! The lighting and warmth are gorgeous, and the DOF could not be better. Wonderful work!
This was one of my top ten, too, so very glad to see the rest of the voters agreed!! Very lovely, very well done, and an excellent interpretation of the challenge!
I love the contrast and how my eyes were drawn around the spiral and brought right to the center. The fact that the sand gets blurrier the farther back you look adds an amazing effect! Congratulations on a wonderful image, you truly have a very creative mind!
