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.

Doing something day in and day out is not exciting or interesting. Having a daily commitment is not a highlight reel.
