Tom, I like your attempt at a collage as a means to express your ideas. My biggest recommendation for you is to give it a bit or organization. Thematically, not necessarily a rigid format. By organizing the photos in a thematic realtionship that is understood by the viewer without a narrative or explanation you are forced into a fuller understanding of your ideas. For me, this is when collage can be very a powerful tool for the "artist".
Anyway, just my thoughts. Good to see you exploring other avenues that you may not be as comfoprtable with. I know that Denise has asked you to try some different things that are less analytical and more expressive.
I think your collage could be more successful if you could have add elements like transparency, lighting, water, layer substances. Isn't this is about water color museum.
