Macro for the Time Challenged side challenge.

My interest is still with the sand. This time I wanted to capture the sparkle of the wet sand.

i like the placement and the subject of this, but it could be a little sharper. maybe bump up the aperature to f8 and let the camera decide what shutter speed

While I like your placement here, I find that the portion of sand visible through the claw, being in sharp focus, detracts from the shape of the pincers themselves. Perhaps it could be selectively blurred a little.

Nice shape and patterns on shell, like how the sand looks so different as it goes from OOF to in focus to OOF again.

You have certainly captured the sparkle of the sand.
The colours are great and the distinct focus and oof areas work really well

Absolutely delicious! I love the OOF areas and bokeh. Almost get a sense of motion/movement with this. Very cool! As for the technicals (comp/lighting/focus), they've all been handled quite well from what I see.

Nice!!!

Great colors and details. The change from blurry to focused to blurry looks great here.

I like the focus, the colors and the dof, I really wish it had an off center composition. Lower left with the broken claw leading into the frame would work very well for this. I like the fact that you have picked a theme and are going with it. Keep up the good work.
