That person is the guy who was making the bubbles who I hadnt noticed until I made a major crop.

Wonderful stuff, and no model fees!

Yup, and the best art is always so simple; beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder this time!

I believe and admire the exposure; I can only guess at a little of what it might take to do it. My eyes seem to be badly out voted here as regards the background. However, I continue to think consolidating it some would help the picture.

Yes, hard on lightness which is not good [I took down the dark version]. I mean to suggest a direction with the sketch more than fix the picture up better than new. Crudely making the background lighter as in the attached is not better than the original, but I am not trying to make it my picture, just show a possibility. And I will quit with this.
