Judges' comments:
Very colorful; nice pattern that leads the viewer into the image; good texture in rock and pinecones
Maker's notes:

Shot with Pixel 11Pro near Cana Island Lighthouse. Radial masking in Lightroom used to add color to pinecones. Additional, fine coloration masking tediously done with small brush feature in Lightroom.
