Thanks for all the great comments and the great voting! I knew this was a good pic, but I was worried about getting the emotion I felt across. Evidently I succeeded! You can see the original photo here and the entire pier here. I would have liked to include a picture of it before it collapsed, but, alas.. Anyway, if you're interested you can see one here.

Oh.. for those wondered what happened: A combination of neglect and weather brought it down around christmas time.. I was able to get this shot due to a really low tide the day I was shooting. There were tons of other people out that day, but luck was on my side and I only got one of them in the shot (you need to brighten up the pic to find them though!)

Good commentary, using differently-colored shells with of course the same
color yolks within all.

Is that Brighton?
Excellent job with the silhouette and a very well balanced shot. B&W works very well here.
