Nice pics. I agree with Leesa, the harbor shot has great color

Thanks for the pics.

What is that 2nd from the left in the second group (0058-20)?
I think I like that one the best - looks like a bed of violets.

Digital people can make blue skies too you know !

it is a decorator urchin (for lack of a better name), they're similar to a decorator crab, but have rocks/shells etc that 'stick' to them

attached is another pic of it, from a little further away.

We have an urchin like that here too, just ours looks more purple and it's called a pebble collector urchin....lol

Excellent pictures. I was there just a week before you. Thought I got some good pictures, but viewing yours brings my head back to near normal proportions. I especially like the decorator urchin. I had no idea they looked like that up close. I always passed right by them. Thanks for a new perspective on a familiar place.
