this shot was taken at the Vancouver Aquarium down in the Beluga Whale section, I didn't think much of the shot until I got home and took a second look, and upon a second inspection there is something very creepy about it in my opinion.

Greetings from the critique club!

Excellent "found" shot. It didn't quite look like you expected but sometimes those are the most interesting shots. I like the composition here and the ghostly appearance of the reflection. Its a fairly dark image but it really suits the shot.

Well done!

very interesting concept but, just a bit too dark just a little more would have made this a much more interesting shot for me.

Some people try the dark photo without much success - you've nailed it. Perfect 10

I found myself leaning forward to get a look at the little girls face... loved this pic! The lines and reflections combined with the dark colours really set a great stage for a Nightmare.

Too dark?

I love the image, but I think you should have lightened it up a little, to make it easier to see the girl.

This is a haunting image - the shades of blue, the reflection and the shear darkness of the image make this stunning.
