The shell is out of focus and little bit overexposed. While I like the creative effort that as gone into this idea, I feel that the dead space draws your eye away from the texture of the shell. Dead space can be a valuable tool for creating atmosphere. I used it in my photo "Who's there?" in the fear challenge. I wanted to leave it to their imagination. But I feel that this is distracting in "this" photo. Maybe if the shell was a bigger part of the image the dead ground would look better. Just my 2 cents worth. Hope this is useful for the future. happy snapping , "5" Dogman :-) Just a quick addition - Look at "pink Murex" in this weeks challenge as a good example of what I was trying to say.
