Starfish

This starfish was carried by a bird and left for dead on our upstairs balcony a while ago. We finally cleaned it yesterday and it was bleached and dried out. I turned it over and got this shot using my macro lens.

Your enthusiasm for my last two pictures is incredible... thank you all!!

Interesting texture!

It would be amazing even without the explanation, which only enhances it. The textures and patterns are really incredible. Thought maybe it was part of a tree!

Very intricate with all those lines and zig-zags! Poor old starfish - at least he got into 365!

really interesting shot - I thought it was a metal pot scourer I until I read the explanation :)
