I like the way the multiples add depth to the picture. I like the combination of the trees and the steps that give the photo a sort of angular feel. Yet, there is also a sort of haze over the photo. I think it be through the fog coming in the left, the direction of the fog also gives the photo depth. I think all of the colors give the photo a lot of life.

I really like this photo, this different from a photo that I would typically like because I am a fan of strong colors and defined lines. But I think the contrast of dark and light is very good in this picture. For example, how it is very light, almost white, at the top of the photo, presumably the surface and as the water gets deeper the picture fades into a darker grey. This is also a different take of multiples because multiples are showing depth, but not so much an angular depth showing distance. The fish really create a focus around the shark, through the shark is faded and more in the background it is still the central focus of the picture.  The colors of the fish in the front make the photo not even appeal real. The mood of the photo is very relaxed, due to grey, yet one would think a shark swimming within a school of fish would cause chaos.
