Thanks to the unwelcome expert eding rules, it's now impossible to assume that this is one capture. Shame really because the respect due for your work on this could be much greater if I was privy to that knowledge.

I'll assume it is not a comp and vote accordingly as I feel that to achieve a shot like this is worth a good score even if if the image doesn't fit the aesthetic that most DPCers prefer.

I'm not sure if I like this, but it's VERY interesting! At first I didn't see the person on the bottom right, but when I scrolled down... it really adds the perfect balence to the shot. The copmosition is really amazing! IMO it would be nice without the grain (but maybe you couldn't fix that or even put it in there on purpose) Also it looks like it could use a little work with levels. You'll notice there is nothing really pure white in the photo - the reflections are just sort of gray. If it weren't for the white border, this would look very dreary! But the border reallly helps. I think some working with levels in Photoshop would probably fix that - and some more contrast might also be nice. But it almost looks neat just the way it is. Over-all, I'd say this has a lot of character - a cool, interesting shot!

This does strike me as dreamlike. The man and the dolphin are like Jungian archetypes.

Very grainy, not sure if that was your intent or not.
