Fwoar. I personally love this !

Great capture from an Olympus superzoom :wink:

I have to say.. this is truely amazing in my opinion, I love the arty overlay... usually I'm not a fan of it as it is "overused the wrong way" but here it's perfectly fitted, the ship even looks like it's stationery ON LAND! *baffles mind*


Great work! :up:

Looks like a clever way to rescue a pic which didn't stand up to your scrutiny.

Well done.

I wouldn't mind seeing a crop of the bottom third, where the water changes texture.

Thank you for the comments guys, this is a reduced size of the
original nothing done to it except that I save it for the web to
a manageable size.

I agree, its a real art to know when to apply filters overlays or whatever these thingy-m-bobs are, and you have nailed it on this occasion.

Great use of a filter to fix an image that I would have thrown away!
