It's a rare day when the water surface is still enough to capture a reflection like this. C&C welcome.

It is very appealing Greg, having just spent the morning looking at paintings in the Noosa Open Studios event, I was drawn straight to your thread.
I would hang it on my wall!
My only thought is the water line mark, (if that is what it is) I would either clone that or lower the blacks to hide it.
+1 to what Kay says
I think that works very well.
Nicely seen and captured.
Excellent. I was recently looking at something that was about abstract in photography. It is not easy. For the viewer, the trick is not to see a boat, but view it as a study in shapes and tones. If you displayed it without reference to a boat, that would help people not to see a boat.
That's nice Greg. I could see that adorning a wall somewhere.
Well seen and well executed, including the PP work.
Nice captured image with all perspectives.
Kay, you are welcome to hang it on your wall . I take it you are referring to the meniscus line and not the water/salt stains on the black section of the hull. The stains are what they are, but the water line appears to have been accentuated by my sharpening. I should have noticed that; thanks for pointing it out.
Thanks Bill.
Thanks, Donald. That is an interesting point about the title. What you see here is how I framed it in camera. That is, I saw it from initial capture, through processing as a study in shapes and tones and I assumed that what it actually is would not distract the viewer from that. Nevertheless, naming abstracts can be a bit of a problem.
What were you looking at in abstract photography?
