Torrey Pines Preserve, La Jolla, California, USA. With the relentlessness of ocean waves, shorelines are ever changing. On this stretch of beach, large clusters of sea-worn rocks were asking to be photographed. I chose to have the sunlight from above the frame.

Some of those rocks look like faces Thad. You accomplished your goal with your DOF.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

A screen full of nicely rounded stones. Nice textures. There is one in front that looks like a face.

Well spotted and capture Thad - the shallow focus was a good choice.

Marvelous results with this shot - I see a few faces when I was studying it in full - like all the different colours and shapes

A good DoF in the photo and a nice capture of the beach stones, Thad.
