There's something of really particular in this your attempt to obtain drawings from the different colours and reflectios on the water, and from the little boats on it.
Maybe the image is a little to big to give the perfect sensation that this unusual image deserved, but I like these fine and even smart silver reflections.
Surely something of new in its fashinating misty atmosphere. Bravo.

Hi! I noticed that this photo appears different according to the monitor where we see it. In the present one there is a bog contrast between the bottom (dark) and the rest of the overexposed part. This is a nice idea but very difficult to achieve good results! This is however a nice try. Jose Paulo

Hi Eugenio. This is a very creative treatment in post processing, with a lot of engaging elements. The abstraction seems fine, but my suggestion is that it needs more contrast between the sailboat figures and their background(s) - there is so little that one misses them at first glance. Best regards,Lamar.

I know this is an aerial shot, but it's really hard to make out any of the actual boats. They really get lost in all the sunlight reflecting off the water. I'd have a hard time guessing what it is without the description. Perhaps next time you could use a filter.
