 the curved blade of the sea as it partitions the continents. I hovered above many shells waiting for the sea to touch them. This was the most dramatic result. pp: just some curves and a b/w adjustment.

Hovering paid off... great! My favorite of your seaside series.

Wonderful B/W conversion. Feels like that darn shell piece is interrupting the visual peace and harmony here. If it was a whole shell it'd be perfect. I think. :-)

I'd have to look up the words you used in your title, but to me it looks like a bit open mouth with one tooth. :-)

*not voting as I'm in this challenge-just commenting since I've seen requests for comments in the challenge thread*

I love the lines in this, almost like an hourglass, or a curvacious womens waist. It's sort of sensual. Would be cooler with a full (not broken) shell. I realize this was probably a spontaneous capture and not set up by you so that was out of your control, but had you placed a nice shell down and waited for the wave that would have been a nice touch. also the brightness of the upper right hand corner is distracting when I'd really like to study the wonerful texture in the sand my eye is pulled away to that spot.
