    Captured this image last year on one very warm June morning at Sandy Hook, NJ. There were several of these little beauties scampering around and seemed to be as interested in us as we were in them. This one paused for a moment in the clear. C&C welcome.

    A sharp image of a worn adult male. Right on sun angle but too many shells for me.

    You did well with the harsh light. Composition is quite nice.

    Hi Geoffrey, Well done, its the distraction of too many shell pieces that distracts me. Nice and SH and colors look terrific. Happy Thanksgiving. TFS

    The shells are an unfortunate reality at The Hook. You were lucky you didn't have some plastic as well. I don't really mind the shells too much, but might have considered weeding them out a bit. Otherwise nicely captured.
