Truly... something curious!!! I must know what is it? The name is sooo intriguing!!! Do you have a wider field of view? Interesting composition. Nice use of DOF. Effective.

sure, d-man...er...person.

breaking point for the way the water in the shell is at the breaking point of dropping,

but not quite.

I personally find the uncropped version has more background gravel than I would want in an image. The cropped version however seems so tight as to make the identity of the object in question. Perhaps a crop somewhere between the two? Love the meniscus.

i was really just fasinated by the clarity of the gravel in the macro.

i never thought of the shot of the whole oyster shell as that great, myself.

here's a little more thought into the shot, though.

I like the final version. The subject is clear and its put within its context.

Very interesting picture; just curious regarding what equipment and settings you were using.

pentax 550 digicam.

shot at 1/200, f/4.5 with a focal length of 7.8.
