This photo looks like a painting, I can see this used as a poster, as an image on wall paper,or on cards or note paper. I love the sailboat and the positioning in the water. All and all a wonderful artful design.

I like this! I can see it on a postcard or T-shirt. It's so graphic. What great positioning of the boat. It really adds interest to the photo and story. Well done.

Comment from Danielle Andrukitis
This is a fun piece of art. I really like the way you made the sky look. I also like the colors you chose for both the sails on the boat and the water.

Comment from Shadow catcher
Your adjustments have worked well for your contest entry,this is a very cool looking photo,actually looks like a painting.The separation of colors without any blending reminds me of those paint by number kits you can buy,but way more sophisticated.I think this is a great image that you have created and wish you the best in the contest!

I love your abstract looking version of the sailboat. Angle of the shot is excellent. Colors work well. I looks like a poster. Your use of filters is excellent. Good luck in the contest.

Wow, such a high rating as this. I appreciate your comments and giving it such a high rating, wow!!!

Comment from willie
Nice idea! I'm not sure if it considered abstract but it is interesting. I only guess at what abstract is anyhow I have entered this contest many times and with not even getting close, so maybe this is something the judges are looking for.
Good luck! We will see.

Thanks willie, glad you liked this image. We will see if the judges like it now.

Comment from Joanna Bachman
Your boat listing against the wave wake is well done. The tattered cloud effects,behind it,together with the dark to lighter greens of the waves,around it, provide good contrast.
Cordially,
Joanna Bachman

Comment from suffolkbrian
nd it worked as far as I am concerned,nice little shot anyway but turning into an abstract certainly lifts this above the ordernary,like this one...Brian

Comment from Mary Christman
This is a really awesome piece of art you created!
I like the abstract look. The way the boat is leaning shows how rough the water was!
You captured this really well!
Thank you for sharing!
