I think this has the potential to be a cracking good still life if you could improve the exposure and bring out more of the texture and reflection in the table. I really like the dark negative space around the shell and how the subject fades into the background. Try a little selective dodging on the subject, which may do the trick. 7

nice tones but reflection detracts.

I feel that this needs more in the shot...you exposure is very low on this...makes it harder to see the details

Fun and creative, the lighting isn't really to my taste, as the subject IMO needs more fill lighting, (and your surface is dirty, why in the world didn't you clone those out?) 6

This guy would probably do a better job than half the "operators" I end up speaking to!

Pretty sure I've spoken with a few of these operators. Well composed. Focus seems a tad soft on the woody's body, but I still like the shot.

Lovely blue eyes which are nicely set off by the umbrella. I think I would have cropped tighter to emphasize that and get rid of the multi-colored towel. Alternatively (if I wanted to keep the cute sunglasses) I'd color the towel blue to make it less attention-grabbing.

I give you a 10 for the innovation. I could see it being used by a company too.
