		LOL!!  I just looked up the band the Sundays and wow...Their photo and this one are very similar.  Just goes to show you that this must be a really great photo, if one like it has been on an album cover.  Sorry I missed this challenge, but I really like this shot.  ~Heather~ |

		Thanks again for everyone who took the time to comment.
  Yes those are fossils - very small (about 1cm Pyratised Ammonites).
  lolly_gagger - When I read your comment I was thinking of replying about living in the UK and how am I supposed to have heard of some obscure US band - then I figured out they are actually a UK band - DOH! Having looked them up on the Internet, I have to agree that the images are very similar. You'll just have to take my word for it that I have never heard of the Sundays or seen the Album before. |

		| as the title implies, the shot really does have great shadows. the composition is good, but I would like it even better if you tilted the camera to place the upper spiral in the upper right corner. also, a greater dof would be nice to get everything in focus. and one more thing... it looks like you boosted the contrast a little too much. but it really is a nice shot. |

		| This is a wonderful piece.  A tiny focus problem at the top and bottom, but it's pretty minimal.  A well deserved 9.  Swash |

		| very nice :)  the depth of field got a little weak in the top of the frame, but other than that, this is an excellent photo :) good work... - jmsetzler |

		| Nice photo and love the contrast. But focus seems to be iffy in certain areas, such as bottom left corner. |

		Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject. Composition - good Technical Aspects - quite good Meets Challenge - yes. Title helps Visual Impact / Originality - good

		| Somethings wrong, but I'm really not sure what it is... Perhaps it's too close.  Sorry, that's not a good comment, but I'm really not sure... |

		| I can't determine exactly what your picture is of.   You have good focus but it looks a little overworked in post processing.   I like to have the subject jump out an say "I am a .....".    Autool |
