Perfect in so many ways... I don’t even know where to begin. Even the border is perfect... What a moment. He looks like he is summoning the fish.. an Avatar fishbender. Kidding. Congratulations, glad2badad!

You caught the moment and I love the small sunburst coming off the seat of the chair it adds to the glistening water this magical fish is so lucky to be going back to.
I think it is so important to get detail in the blacks and you did that superbly keeping the drama in the contrast.

This was actually my challenge favorite. A casual moment frozen in time and rendered profound by a dozen different fine art processing choices.
