Cockle shell, Clam Beach

Nice effect!

Leslie - - You decided to show flowing water as a set of congruent lines and curves; this works quite well, especially in light of the partially visible seashell. Kudos for not saturating the colors any further. - - michael

Thanks, Steve and Michael! I've been spending a lot of time recently trying to figure out how to work with the motion of the waves--it's been quite an adventure (often wet), with an uncommonly low success rate (which I suppose is why I'm so obsessed with it at the moment).

Leslie, this is a definite favorite. I know you are working on technique with the water images, but this one is fine art. Keep doing this type of work. It's clearly not in the mainstream and not derivative like so much of the images on the site.

Thanks, Sam! There are more of these coming--I'm having a lot of fun trying to figure out how to make them work (it's always nice to have a good excuse to drop by the beach)
