Sun, reflection and reeds on the Thames, just by Radley College, Boathouse. A vision of abstract beauty in nature at sunrise, with the waters glowing at first light. Just beautiful. The original was 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!
