A vision of abstract beauty in nature - lily pads. sun, shimmering reflection and the hulls of a catamaran pleasure boat on the Thames, just by Radley College, Boathouse. But then I got adventurous and turned it into something more colourful and abstract, using a combination of Photoshop techniques including image folding, rotation, multi-layer blending, transformations and gradient mapping. I hope you like it!
