Out of the blue

Two pictures taken almost twenty years ago with a point and shoot digital camera at an aquarium, and no technical expertise whatsoever.

Still, I find these to be quite evocative.  A case in point that an uncanny balance between seen and unseen can make an image much more compelling than an ultra-sharp, high-definition, HDR, see-it-all picture.
