Taken on the coast yesterday, the smooth almost marble like appearance against the rough pitted contours of the orange pebble.

I like that. It's amazing how often I've been at the coast somewhere and never looked down. A lesson well learned.

Thanks' folks, it is amazing what you find, you really need to slow yourself down and look for the details.

I definitely like it, nicely done - how about cloning out the small "lump" just above the L/H rock and the small blow holes as they detract slightly from the main subjects?

Love it! Very well spotted. I would get rid of the dark blob as Simon says, but rather like the little blowholes

I like the photo. Very contrasting, and almost zen like!

Great shot, Snappy. I must have walked past those pebbles thousands of times and never thought of photographing them...
Best wishes,

Andrew
