Yeah! I came across two well done shot in a row - yippeee! I like the composition, colors and lighting. Good luck in the challenge - hope you do well with this photo.
A day at the beach, nice shot of bubbles in nature, great earth tones but it will be hard to compete with all the rainbow-type colorful bubbles, good luck ... 7.
great focus and DOF through the shot, love the sharpness. The colors are kind of unappetizing for me, would be better in B&W IMO. Did you take more than one photo of this? I would like to see more exploration of the various compositions possible. Off the top of my head, I'm wondering if you dug a hole so you could get your camera on the same level, or below the level of these shells? To me the magic of photography is we can show stuff from different perspectives - so there's some creative, off the top of my head rambling - hope it's helpful :-)
