Thanks Techo, it's definitely work in progress. I thought I had the right DOF (focus on top of coral, but back at the computer the sand is somewhere between not focussed enough and not blurred enough. I now have the texture I want for the sand, but with excess glow as a result. Wii continue to work on it. I was in two minds about uploading it as is, but I saw eligible looking a little sparse and decided to boost it a little. I have two others I'll be uploading from the same shoot but different subjects. Regards, -Najinsky

Love the idea! haha. I remember Corel Draw and still use it at times.

The shot has excellent balance and color. My taste would like a bit less of the glowing effect but I do like this.
