Thanks for your commentaries, I hope not to have committed irregularity in the treatment of the image.
The adjustments made with Adobe Photoshop are the following ones:
1. - Adjustment of levels.
2. - Adjustment of threshold level.
3. - To replace color (increase of the luminosity).
4. - Balance of color (increase of blue level).
5. - Increase of Resistance.
6. - Approach.
Composition here is excellent, nice a simple. Yes this is certainly art. Art isn't always understood. It would be nice to see more detail about how you did this. I think you used high contrast?
Anyway, I like it. This should be framed and sold in a nautical shop.
Tecnically I'd say this is very good work, however you processed it. The color is good too.
I like it!
Glad you got the admin note, but IMO, this is still too manip'd to be a photo, it is now a nice piece of digital art. Never fear, I'm not going to dump your score into the toilet, but 5 is about the best I can go. Swash
