    That is an amazing shot, Terry. I would not want to step on one of those urchins.

    This view really shows the line of urchins--can't blame them for being hungry, but I can see the dilemma, for sure!

    Wonderful layers in this image, Terry; terrific textures, plus it is so interesting to see all those sea urchins just below the surface!

    This is outstanding Terry! I love that you caught all the sea urchins just below the waterline. Great detail.
