Here's lookin' at you.
Lens: Pentax 55-300 Camera: K-01 Photo Location: Little Bay, NSW ISO: 3200 Shutter Speed: 1/45s Aperture: F13.5

Went to the beach and found myself caught in the eye of a water dragon.
Only had the 55-300 on the camera so I got close to show I wasn't scared.
The colours I boosted a bit but they were all there.
Beaches are endlessly giving.

Not sure what it is, but I like the colors and framing. I'm not at all afraid of Dragons......Devil Squirrels and Clowns, that's a different story!

Regards!

Thanks to you all for your comments.
Rupert, it is a naturally formed 'bowl' in the rock close to shore in central New South Wales. I took the shot because it was so unusual, the colours were so surprising... and because of the 'eye' resemblance.
This particular beach has many strange forms.
Like this 'brain' and 'face'.
No squirrels though!

Wow! Fooled me, I was certain it was a bowl!

That's good! If you start to see squirrels, don't go back, they are bound to be trouble lurking!

Regards!
