Doctor Who

I really like the composition here. There is a strange angle from top left to bottom right and his head is way out of center of the composition. I hope that this strange angle reflects the strangeness of this character. I always loved the wacky and weird side of David Tennant’s Dr Who.

I’m recovering from my ear operation from yesterday so my brain is not what it could be, but I show up, no matter what.
