Default Nuts on the beach

I came upon this on a beach in Mexico at the Grand Sirenis Resort in January 2009. Aside from the death of a nut it showed great beauty.

I'm fairly new to photography and this site. I'd love your comments, both good and not.

Do you have any EXIF data for this image? I suspect you moved the camera too much during exposure resulting in a loss of sharpness.

Default Exif?

Not sure what that is but taking from that I probably should have used a tripod right?

The photo is out of focus, faster shutter speed along with a larger aperature would have minimized the issue.

Some PP tweaking

Thanks, as I said just getting started in this photography and loving it. Now I'm ready to take to the next level and look forward to learning these techniques.
