Beautiful photograph! However, I do think it would be “more gospely” if the the two main images were reversed–Christ diving down to meet humanity.

True true. I was thinking more along the lines of Christ being who we meet at “the bottom.”

I get ya! Perhaps kind of like Garth Brooks, “I’ve got friends in low places” along with the ol’ hymn “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” At least the titles.

No scuba gear! Embracing such a Jesus for any length of time would probably kill you. Seems appropriate to me.
