And it adds to the style quite nicely. Good use of dominating red.

Very cool perspective on this. I like all the shadows. There was an earthquake not far from here off the coast of La Jolla Saturday afternoon. It measured 3.9 and caused giant squid to wash up on the beach.

Well, it looks great too. The red really stands out. And the shadow adds to it.
