This is absolutely breathtaking. The shell looks like ceramic with high quality paint! Just a beautiful composition, Barbara. I really like the pov in this one, too...Sort of a "sideways-straight on-over the top" view ;-)...I love it. Did you get this in Costa Rica?
I just love the shiny colors! Great stuff here!

The quality of the light through this is lovely. Didn't Edward Steichen make images of a chambered nautilus?
