Description β€œI do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.”

-Isaac Newton

Nice composition! I like the way the shell is placed into relationship to the ocean and its movement being present in background. – By the next wave the shell might be washed away… So it’s really like one of all the ideas flashing through ones mind – with or without being recognized.
Maybe I’d have placed the frame a little lower to get the mirror image of the shell a bit more separated from it…
Anyway - beautiful pic!

Thanks for that thoughtful and valuable comment. Its really fascinating to know how you interpreted this image and I really thank you for sharing it.
I agree about that reflection should be given more space. I'll see what I can do about it.

Thanks for that constructive comment!

Beautiful photo. I really like the low angle that you took this one from, and the way you captured the reflection on the sand. Keep this up!!!!

Thanks! I'm glad you realized about the low angle. I had to be really careful with the shot timing as my camera could be wet if the waves come back. Luckily its not

Are those all shells in the background?
And if you don't mind me asking, what camera and lens was used?

I'm quite happy with the color as well. Its the combination colors of bluish sky, brown sand and yellow-ish shells.

JeanVoyage [2006-01-03 00:21:47 +0000 UTC]

the focus provides nice textures..but I think a few other shells a bit in focus would be nice! amazing piece,keep it up!
