I appreciate your comments. No need to appologize for your opinion on the image, Dan. Although I would be interested in exactly how it is confusing to your eye. I was going for something kind of stark. Here is the original. I dont mind it, but, it is just a little cliche and the background bothers me for some reason.

The more I look at it...I think it is the vertical format that causes the issue. When I use a sheet of paper to mask the image to a horizontal format the image works much better for me.
