When I first reviewed this shot, it immediately struck me, strangely perhaps, that the two little fixtures were having a confrontation, and not a friendly one, and the one on the left was the aggressor.

They look like seahorses to me.
The one on the right waiting for the other to catch up ;)

Love your eye, Mitch! I love the whimsy here. Your vision of confrontation adds to my enjoyment but I liked it immediately even without the title and description. The rotated position of one fixture creates the interest in this shot. And the subject and composition and palette could not be much simpler -- perfect for the theme. #8653222
