My apologies - I must be more careful with my use of English - your English
is so good that I  forget it is not your first language.

My definition of Gobsmacked would be:

Stunned. As though one has just been slapped across the face with a large
fish.

But my dictionary defines it as:

Gobsmacked: Adjective. (slang) Flabbergasted, utterly amazed or overawed.
Flabbergasted: Astounded (to shock with surprise)
Overawed: Overcome with awe (respect or admiration)

Therefore if I may respond again to your picture:

--
Wow. I am utterly amazed by you picture and as stunned as person who has
just been slapped on the face with a large, wet fish. The first view of your
picture shocked and supprised me and left me feeling overcome with respect
and admiration for you and your work.

(I liked it very much. But such a short phrase cannot possibly describe how
much I liked it  :-)
