The crab's shack

We all have our favorite hang-outs. What's yours?

Took this shot of a Florida beach crab hanging out at his favorite hole in the sand one day (tweaked with oil paint effect).

AM3 Community: You are the best! Thanks to all for any and all comments made here this past week. When shared, our skills and our insights, our ups and our downs, are great encouragements for all of us to become the best photographers we can be. I salute each one of you and say again, "Thanks!"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL AT AM3. I am out and probably away from the computer all this week. We are headed to north Georgia to spend Thanksgiving with our son and his wife and her family. I hope everyone who celebrates this holiday has a wonderful day, filled with turkey and gratitude for every blessing. And those who do not, I hope will remember to count their blessings and be thankful. Packing and getting the SUV all set for the drive today; we leave very early Tuesday morning and plan to return sometime Sunday.
