Found this crab claw while taking a stroll down Weligama beach.
I couldn't decide what to submit and I think it's been a bad year for me. I picked this one because I quite like it and think it best represented the type of images I enjoyed during the year.
I would also hang it.

Thanks a lot guys.

5.5?! Seriously? I gave this a 9...it's a wonderful work of art. One for the personal gallery for sure (although you're most likely out of wall space already).
I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: Beautiful and brave. The juxtaposition of the red crab claw against the very black volcanic sand is very effective. I love the texture of the sand to and how, where it reflects, black is actually white if we care to look hard enough. Your composition of the frame is exquisite.
Interesting take on some thing so simple. My hats off to you. Love the color. Only suggestion would be a tighter crop. Just enough that you can tell what it is without reading the title. Good Luck!
Hunt not good this week. Grog bring home one small piece of meat. Female be unhappy with Grog. Grog bang on rock three times (subtle hint that Grog expect late night greatness) and female have headache.
