    The Clam was eaten by a Herring Gull when this guy dropped in just to find out that he/she was late.
    No meal was left. Taken at Fort DeSoto.
    Full Frame, hand held.
    Thanks for looking.

    The whites look great Karl. I would either include the shells fully at the bottom of the frame or crop them out. I would also clone out the specular highlights in the water. Love the empty clam shell- the egret almost looks disappointed!

    Gail took the words right out of my mouth - covered everything I had to say.
    This image makes me want to go some (any) beach - has been a long time :(
