This is my first attempt at an abstract intimate landscape, taken on a photo workshop in Olympic National Park. I was attempting to channel Monet here!

Hi Robert,

Well I think you nailed it. This is a beautiful abstract the should have a prominent space on your wall.

My only suggestion is that you should consider cloning out the what looks like leaves floating on water. I count 5 of them from the horizontal midpoint up.

Thank you; you are right about the clean-up of the floating leaves. I’ve taken care of it.
