These red and black sea urchins were gorgeous in the surf. They were like rubies scattered among topaz and other gems.

I really like the colorful and abstract look of this, Lucy. As you say, like multicolored gemstones. The red in the urchins practically glow.

The sea urchins are lovely, Lucy, and the glow is certainly eye catching. I only wish ther had been more of them.

This looks like a Nancy Lea Sandy, "Headwaters" shot. The sea urchins are indeed gorgeous and the yellow/orange rocks set them off nicely. I find myself wishing for more sharpness at the bottom, that cropping the bottom 1/4 helps.

Love the abstract look the water gives these sea urchins. Really neat find, Lucy. I like your repost with the crop up from the bottom even better than the original.

Yep, that crop works well for me. My eyes jump right to the largest urchin right away.
