discomforting beauty

 

what can I say? "Tonight you sleep with the fish?"

Definitely not your everyday sort of photograph. It strikes you like a punch in the stomach on first sight. Since I imagine that that's what you were going for, you succeeded in spades. It calls to mind a scene from Golding's "Lord of the Flies"; if you've read the book, you probably know which one. I think it could benefit from a little lifting of the shadows, and (for this size) a small bit of sharpening, but in any case, the impact is undeniable.

Beautiful image. Great composition. I like the contrast in colors.
