Looks like it is on dry and may be it is under water shot? Anyway looks great!

I don't know what equipment you have available, so it is hard to give advice. If you use slr with strobes on arms I would have placed them a little more to the right and higher up to get some light on top and front of the head and get a better outline of the head.

Personally I would have tried to get an angle more from the front of the head too. The composition is also very tight, too tight imo, and I don't see the reason for it.

If you shoot with a compact you are very limited on objects like this. For underwater they are best for macro.

Your choice of b&w? Hard to say anything as I don't know if there were any disturbing colors in the background.
