roberT Thank you for your really constructive opinion! I understand that I've done too much with my photo and it is overwhelmed with elements. I agree with you that inversion was quite unfortunate work here. Thank you for your opinion once again! Opinion from you are always welcome!
ponzu I think the photo had a potential to work without being inverted. The surf line leading to the child and the shadowy figure that's just out of sight yet always present, watching and documenting the child -- I think that's what this photo could have been about, but ended up being about the inversion.
