Interesting shot and very well cropped, however, I would have done it with the lighter pieces while employing the identical light. It would have aided in the definition of the Knight. Bumping up on composition.

This is destined to remain as one of the most breathtaking images in the DPC archives. You can almost breathe the air of its spatial dimensions. Sort of grips the eye and the attention and then the experience of sheer delight. The value of the colors with the brown red tone culminating in the gray and then the white above.

Of course, the secret of its strength lies in the simple fact that it conveys the principle of the Mandala. As such it hooks the senses and one finds total relief because of the exquisite harmony. It is like a relaxing trip filled with joy and beauty which allows one to drop one's guard and enjoy the moment.
