Hmmm....never thought of crab as part of the wildlife :D:D

I think I would crop a bit from the right and the top. Then I'd tone down the light areas a bit to show more details.

Here's a repost. Darkened it a bit. Looks better I think. Crop looked OK to me.

Very cool image of a Ghost Crab, Bob. I never seem to find these guys out in the daylight. I like the repost better. The sharpness, composition, and low shooting angle are all well done. The stalked eyes are great. You might consider removing some of the specular highlights from the legs.

Neat shot Bob. Repost looks better. If it were mine, I'd crop to the top of the dark spot in the LRC and clone out the dark stick on the left. Not because they're distracting but to enhance the complimentary color mix of the crab, BG, grass, and sand.

Crop is fine, Bob. Looks good. I like the repost, the original was a bit too bright. Good work getting down low and making the image.
