Nice emptiness thou...

W's are M's as well. Theres a J, and an L and even a r in the lamp post

I see an upside down J top right palm. And a small cap r

I grew up on an island off the coast of Florida, and we got it all the time. I think it's found all over, just named after the Sargasso Sea

It's really hard to see any prominent letters except V and W and they're just scattered on the palm leaves.

T and S, unless you also wanted to count the Palm leaves in the background as W's.

Nice idea... but the shovel blocks the men

Those aren't seagrapes. They are much larger. It looks like a piece of Sargasso Weed with the leaves broken off. They are that color and have small grape-like "berries" on them.

nice shot. There is such a thing as seaweed grapes, but I dont know the exact name.
Good luck

sorry author, but it is not obvious what is washed up here...........it just looked like a tree by the water edge to me!

Strange, could it be some kind of seaweed? Great detail.

sorry, have I missed something here............what is washed up?

looks like dropped grapes.

I like the simple, clean lines in this - you've used them effectively

Simple but effective..

Beautiful...

I like this shot very much...best of luck author

very nice different approach to theme...gl

It's a little OOF

Agrees with Friiskiwi

very nice clean shot...gl

Love the coloured glass, but for this competition I think it would have been better to crop it out.

Dramatic weather is relative to where you are and what is the norm for that area so I think there has to be some latitude for this competition and I for one will put aside my personal experiences and judge the photos in their own right.
For the Med this looks pretty rough to me but it is the composition that makes it dramatic it in eyes and therefore a worthy entry.

I've lived next to an ocean for 6 months of my life. I've seen them calm and I've seen them rough. This is not rough to me.

I don't see any storm here, Sorry...

nice back lighting brings out the thorns well, nicely done

Much better, glad I held my vote.

if this is heavy rain, then you'd be blown away by the rain we get sometimes when it is raining sideways.

I like the edited version even more. I think having less sky adds to the effect. Gives it a bit of a gloominess and the rain works well against the trees. Thanks for considering the change.

Camera survived but author spent 3 days in hospital with pneumonia for walking barefoot in the rain. I like the idea of cropping the sky as you can see the rain against the trees. Might make it more interesting.

hope the camera stayed dry!

beautiful

it's a good shot, but I would crop a lot of the sky out.

How old? Looks older than a "baby" Over 2?

I think this would have looked better if you didn't crop out the pedals reflecting in the water. Just IMO.

The background is a little distracting and I would rotate the image say 3 degrees to the right and crop out the background to the left a little. . GL!

Well this got my attention, lol. What a ploy indeed, first time I see one like this.

Beautiful! Where is this currency from?

Very nice.

I love these, they taste so good. Great find and shot.

Might be nice if you could crop a bit more closely to emphasize the translucency of the legs

Nice setup and execution! GL!

And being upside down, actually grabs the attention.

I've seen billboards turned upside down here too. It's a marketing ploy to get driver's attention and really make them read it.

looks like a B-52 (cocktail)

Don't think I like the way the glass is leaning.

I really like this one, makes me feel like having a cup, but it's too late.

the feather is nice and sharp in High res, but I feel the photo could be improved with a closer crop and the feather not so much centered.

Hmm... coffeetail?
