When I only looked at the first, still not knowing the second photo, I thought: I would wish for this to have no visible ending of this line of angels, there should not be that dark-green top there, the repetition of angels should seemingly go on eternally, only cut off by the frame ... and then I see the dolphins and find my idea for the first photo realised in the second.
Yes, that is what I think the angel photo should be like, too.
Lovely DOF and concept. (Well, that concept just begged to be taken as a photo, didn't it?)
