Seen from above, palm crowns form a loose row along the meeting of land and shallow water. Their long shadows stretch across the textured shore, and the diagonal composition reveals subtle bands of green and blue beneath the surface.
About this photograph
A large weathered shell rests at the edge of shallow water, photographed from close to the sand. Small waves catch the sun behind it, and the low viewpoint makes the shell’s curved opening the dominant shape.
