Six in this series of full face forward that shows position of mouth and eyes as well as cephalic fins and dorsal fins. Although I have the original blue version decided to convert to B&W in Silver Efex Pro 2. The bubbles are from the scuba divers in the tank. Comment welcome. A few more on the way.

I love that you are allowing us to see every angle and feature of these beautiful creatures. The conversion to black and white lets the character stand out and I love the framing Emile. #11375850Emile Abbott September 19, 2015
