Low tide in the Dee estuary left these wonderful mosaic patterns in the soft mud. I took this just as the sun was setting. All comments, good and bad are welcome and thanks for looking.

Classic texture abstract. Where's the lone green shoot popping up in the middle?

The light and contrasts are powerful here.

The low angle light is really nice here and great color, too. Well done.

I like textures like this a lot. Just wondering about maybe going B&W with it for a more graphic look.

Thanks everyone, I'm delighted with all the feedback.

Tony, I'm hopeless at making B/W converions. I'll give it a go though.

Cheers, Gary.

Very cool shot! Love the low angle light and the textures here. I also would suggest trying a b&w conversion.
