I cropped a section out of a sockeye salmon photo, turned it vertical (head at bottom) and then expanded the image width. I agree that the result feels peaceful.
You made my day Anon. The Richter comparison is something I consider a compliment. In my opinion he was unique and his art is hard to define. Here's one of his quotes that gives you a sense of the depth of his craft, "Strange though this may sound, not knowing where one is going, being lost, being a loser, reveals the greatest possible faith and optimism, as against collective security and collective significance. To believe, one must have lost God; to paint, one must have lost art."

The Fish Eye is always watching. No blinking or sleeping, just carefully watching everything around.
New horizons abound in the next riffle up.
