How true? And a great illusion you created. Looks like an oil painting. and the old boat has a charm of it's own. Very clever idea.

Impressive colors and reflection! And the thin line is an excellent barreer here! Great shot!

This is so beautiful...I write almost the same text of the U2 song where I'm listing to now ;-)...lol...
But I like the colours and the reflection in the water and the white rope in the middle is a great eye for detail Marija...my compliments for this beauty...a favorite ;-)

Have a nice weekend Marija.

Reflections mostly make beautiful shapes and here you have a great one !
First of all, I like the textures and great colours of the boat in the upper-part, then I like the softer abstract artwork in the water giving such nice shapes, really nice, Marija

Hi Marija,
Absolutely stupendous.
A beautiful piece of photography/artwork. The water/reflection is just incredible in its saturated richness and thick oily nature.
The line works great wonders here and your title is right on.
That line-oh so very thin well at least in my being of experiential existence!
Mostly though its all illusion and only proper perspectives of clarity can reveal this truth and move away from the concrete illusion.
Excellent work Marija, most excellent!

Stunningly beautiful image, Marija. When I look at reflections on water surface I usually think: "Too bad it's not calm enough". In the case of your picture I would have been totally wrong. Thanks to water movement the mood is so much more of a painting rather than a photograph. I caught myself staring at it to the point that I see animal heads and human faces in the reflection of the boat. Congratulations!

I like the vibrant colours and the details of this image. I would love to see however more of the boat to complete the image, but of course it would no longer be categorized as abstract. Anyway, thanks Maria for sharing.

Beautiful saturated colors, and an interesting, well-conceived composition. The reflection makes an amazing abstract. I like the thin white line that seemingly divides the two.

You've done well, as usual!

Great shot Mare! Colors and effect is great, but what has surprised me the most is the fact that I took very similar shot this weekend! Now I know I wouldn't post it here, you did a much much better job!
Great work, TFS!

wow. what a colorful photo! Really cool post processing. Was that white line really there? If so, nicely seen (and used) to create the line between the reality (which is also sureal) and the reflection. Very nice! JP

Hey Marija,

I saw ur photo previously but I was in a rush and no time to write a note for you. So, finally I managed to find it back.

The reflections are really attractive, and the dance of colours simply stunning!

Was it PPed btw? You are a PP magician, so I can't really tell!
Very nice! Love it!

Hello Marija, great composition of this boat and it's reflection. Just the right tight composition. The colours and the effect on the water are special.

Very well done.

Have a great day, Yan

have you ever seen "What dreams may come"? It's with Robin Williams, well there are scenes (I don't want to spoil it) where the colours are so beautiful, they just remind me of this.

It looks like a water colour painting, in the style of Claude Monet. Beautiful as usual Marija!

Cheers

Thanks for sharing.

Great colours and textures, with interesting reflections. My personal opinion is that it doesn't need the dividing line, but the line does provide a point of interest. Nice photo!

Hi Marija !
I like your pictures, they are very "graphical".
This one for the colors, the sharpness and.. the boat :)
Nice shinny photo !
