Very cool composition, Dorothy! My daugther would be in heaven with all those great shells. She looks for sea shells everytime we go to the lake, even though I tell her that there aren't any in fresh water, she insists on looking anyhow...lol! #1244952

Thank you Cathy, Donald, Charlene, Paul C., Wendy, Paul M, Sanjay and Cindy. This image looks great as my computer wallpaper...and I think it would make a neat jigsaw puzzle, too! Glad you like it! #1245635

Wonderful image, Dorothy!!! The whole image is so sharp and has such clarity! Just beautiful! I have a small collection of seashells and I'm always taking pics of them. They do make a fun subject! #1246339

Hi Sharon and thanks. Truth to tell, your beautiful shell images were inspiration for me in taking this. I paid $8 for my box of shells, and they are spread out right now on a table that's about 2 feet by 4. As time permits, I'm getting ideas about some different shell arrangements, so I may take some that are quite different from this one. #1246368
