Hi Firstorm , let me give you my take on #2 for what its worth. If I had found this I guess you found it and not arranged it, I think I would have seen the nice side lighting and the face in the arrangement and thought great picture and taken it just as you have. Now looking at it, Im thinking great humour picture what if I just draw the rest of the face in the sand might just add another element to it. Some pictures need a little making. LOL :0)
