Hehe! Until I saw the last one I thought that was a walnut and I was asking myself - why is there a walnut on the beach? D'oh!
The first two look identical to me...
I do like the last!

Ian there is a bit more sand foreground VS sea background between 1 & 2 !
A WALNUT (she squeeled aghast, given the huge nut it actually was! ... now that must be the reason I had some land and sky in the original shot - perspective !
I like the last best, too ! now !

Now Chevvy, any of those is exactly how a washed up coconut oughta look!
Love it!
Phew ! glad to know this Mark ! ... I was almost bored playing on the beach/in the sea then I wandered along the Beach and found a Playmate - my Coconut and the sea was amazingly strong, every time I threw the nut in, back it came to me ! Then I had a thought, camera & shot !

Falk, yes its amazing really the coconut you see in the sea has a brown Mango like skin with the coconut hair under - this is coir that matting etc., is made from ! its there to protect the coconut when its ripe and falls from a great height off the tree !

Hi Chevvy - it is amazing how far we have travelled from my original thought!
I agree with Ian - when looking at your first 2 shots if I hadn't have known it was your coconut I would have been wondering what the heck the photo was all about.
But #3 is a cracker & explains what the coconut is doing on the beach.
Just shows what a good crop can do.
