[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Coronhas, also called "olho-de-boi", are seeds (size one dollar coin). I don´t know which tree will grow up from it and I never saw it on the trees. But I know this seeds at least since 38 years, because it came with the sea currents from the bush bordering the bay of Guaratuba and the waves throw it on the beach's sand, where we use to find them when shelling. It´s shell is very hard and if we cause friction on that black line (on rock), it became very hot. To find coronhas is a nice play for the children at summer time..

Superb macro, with a quality that makes this an art shot as well as a nature shot!
Great colours and details, superb textures and well-handled dof!
Wonderful from start to finish!

Hello Zeca,
Nicely composed picture. Sharpness and exposure are great. Very well done.

Very cool shot Jose!

The abstract quality of this shot is obvious and you show great skill in getting every part sharp. I like the vertical viewpoint and the deep mahogany colours.
Nice frame and decent composition with lots of detail and interest for the wondering eye.

Hola Zeca,
Otra interesante y buena composición mostrando estos no tan fotogenicos pero no menos importantes habitantes del mar. Me gusta como llenan toda la imagen. Linda nota.

Que bom te encontrar aqui Zeca...

Uma foto de qualidade, muito interessante e bela.
Ótima nitidez, cores e detalhes incríveis.

Hi Zeca,
I am just browsing through your gallery, since you are the one that has influenced my hopefully, improving photography the most. I really like this one. The seeds look more like rocks, very solid and this shows through with the great quality of the image. I like all the different colours.
Cheers,
Debbie

Olá Zeca,
Quem já foi menino no interior do Brasil sabe bem uma das utilidades da coronha: esfregar no chão de cimento, p. ex., e queimar os companheiros (digo logo, para que não pensem mal os que não a conhecem...)
Visitar suas galerias é receber aulas de fotografia e bom gosto.
Abraço
