Lovely image.  Nice capture of a rather uncommon shell (this species was over collected in Florida, nice to see they are hopefully coming back).

wow nice photo, the colors are just amazing,,, great DOF too ,, well done

Very nice capture.  Your name detracts a lot from a beautiful photo.  Maybe you can subdue the color like your other one if you feel you have to have your name in it.  ALan.

Thanks for all the comments folks.

The water although distracting is meant to keep the photo from being used without permission.   Don't know if it actually works.

Some photographers put right across the subject.  Impossible to crop off but it ruins the photo IMHO.  I put mine where it is and they way it is as a compromise.

Maybe there is a better way to protect your image and still show it here.

Have you sold any of your pictures?

Not really.  I'm just an amateur.  Sometimes people offer to buy and oblige.
