Bruce, Thanks for 'skies' and 'color' remarks. When considering the scene, my thought ran something like this: The head is not the total subject nor simply a peripheral element, but one which must have a prominent place in the scene. In this case, the location must, also, be given substantial weight. I feared that a wider angle lens (this was shot with a K24mm f/2.8) would diminished the horizon prominences to a point were their impact would have been lost. Especially if the camera were placed closer to the scull. Your response to my compositional reasoning will be appreciated. All comments welcome.
