Greetings from the Comment Bomb Squad!

I have humbly accepted the job of commenting on the portfolio of a man who's mind I lack understanding of. Allow me to say a prayer and dive in!

Using a composition simultaneously including the Rule of Thirds, the Rule of Threes, a hint of framing and repetition of shape, the subject has a very well defined focal point. The tones of reflected light and dark are deep bringing the viewer deeper into the image in order to connect with a subject shielded by the watery shapes. Yet the subject is actually the guardian of the deep it inhabits!
