simple, yet very creative.. loved the ripple pattern and the color of the sand.. the angled tail makes it even more special (wish the side fins had opened up as well).. although this is a full frame, i wonder how it would have looked if the fish was placed in the bottom 1/3rd of the frame to the right..

A unique perspective here VMR ! I agree with you that ripples hold the image as much as (or more) compared the fish and its shadow. Wish you had an opportunity to get the fish alone bigger in the frame yet retaining those ripples. I think mid-day light seem to work perfect here.
