Something about this image caught my eye but I'm not sure what!! I like the patterns in the sand and the deeper 'holes' remind me a little of footprints :o)

Very delicate. I like the choice you picked for your subject. It has a great organic feel and a lot of interest with the textures. I do think it feels zennish as there is a bit of a pattern to the texture that helps calm things down. The lighting is good but I wish there were a a bit more shadows to help add to the feeling of depth. I gave a 7
