This is for get pushed challenge this week set by @smevvy. In heather's words "I noticed you have a crystal ball which you haven't used much, so i challenge you to go and experiment with it a bit more. Maybe try taking a landscape through it if you get the chance! Enjoy!"
This is my first response for this challenge. Had a couple of ideas I wanted to try but my younger son got stung by a blue bottle so photography got forgotten for a while :-)

Thanks :-) Son got better in about half an hour after the life guards sprayed something on the site. He made me carry him all the way back to the car saying he wanted to go home. When there he decided he was all good and dragged us back to the beach and spent another half hour in the water :-) @sam_cr Not an empty beach at all. This is Wanda beach (North Cronulla). The pathway where these posts are about 10 meters higher than the beach itself so when you walk down you don't see anything until you on the beach. My post from 25th Nov is at the same location. Even then the beach was packed
I love how you captured this scene Abhijit! My crystal ball is the same size, and can be difficult to work with, given its size and weight. I love how you utilized it in this photo. Looking forward to seeing what else you come up with for your challenge with it. :-)
Oh I soooo have to get me a crystal ball!!!!! lol. Love the simplicity in this too as well as the lines. Wishing your little mini-man a speedy recovery, those blue bottles are nasty.
Excellent shot Abhijit! I love the composition. I'm so glad that you're son recovered and you were able to enjoy the rest of the day at the beach! Great job on challenging yourself. My goal is to do more of that this year.
So lovely. The simplicity of the background in contrast to the intricate scene in the orb is beautiful. I must dig mine out of the depths of my camera bag and hit the railroad :)
Just now seeing this, but instant Fav... congrats on your project and for continuing to share awesome photos like this... love the serene, meditative, composition!
One of my photography goals this year is to get a crystal ball and shoot some pics! Thisis fabulous! What size ball is it! I want that size....the bigger one is too big! Fav!!
Hope your little guy is ok! x

Son was better in about half hour
Thanks everyone:-)
For those who want one of these, they are fairly inexpensive on eBay
Hope your sone is recovering.

Thanks :)
