Terrific! The colors are beautiful. Great detail in the shell. Don't know what the object is behind the shell though -- that could be just because I don't get out much. I would loveto see this photo with only the beautiful shell but it works this way.
What's with all the shells? Don't get me wrong. I love them and collect them. I still can't figure out what you did here, but I like it. The light behind the shell has me buffaloed. Very intriguing. Good soft picture. The softness makes it.
Technically correct (exposure, focus, etc.) 6 Good composition. 6 Tells a story or creates a mood 5 High impact to the viewer 5 Exemplifies the theme of the Challenge 7 overall 6 Sulamk
I like the use of light and the subject choice. Whatever that is in the bg adds interest and is a nice addition. My big problem with the shot is that it seems so soft. If you chose for it to be that way then I would like to know why. I would just like it SO much more in sharp focus. ~indigo997
Quite interesting. I like the lighting. Works well here. I also like the light that has been thrown into the background. The glow of the shell works nicely. Focus is nice and the angle and framing/cropping are also well done. Nice shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~
