One sign of an interesting art piece is the way it instantly makes me want to have a conversation with someone. Here, the abstruse provocation and high-contrast presentation invite a second look at the grungy subject matter to try discerning what the artist wants me to see. And here's what I see: Urban blight every bit as unwelcome as stinging jellyfish washed up on the beach where my family is trying to vacation. A metaphor for the encroaching tradeoffs of modern progress. An interrogation of who the "jellyfish" in this image really is, and a suspicion that maybe it's me.

The poor thing just gets washed away. Someone needs to save the day.

I think I do recognize the face. But that takes nothing away from the stunning photograph, such a great find. Love the title. I hope you also have an "art best of" tucked away somewhere.

Yes. I co-sign this one all the way. This is much harder to get right than it looks, and now what you have here is ready for compositing into your next long-exposure self-portrait series. :-D
