Well, I was going to throw in a Starbucks coffee cup but I am against pollution :)- The boats would have made the otter less visible and it's such a rare treat to see them eating right out of the shell that I took a chance that my title would be believed (also that people would understand that I would never get a shot out in the ocean of an otter this close up but it was worth it for snaffles comment. I laughed so hard. Thanks for all the comments.

Excellent capture, I would have like to seen a boat with it, to make it a top contender, other wise outstanding work.

Great shot of the otter. But ... I wish there was something in the image to give it an urban context for this challenge.

great wildlife shot but I don't know about the urban aspect of tjhe challenge. Maybe if it had some pickled ginger and wasabi on a little tray to wash down the shellfish with? :-)
