Port of Rotterdam did do some work in Paint.net on this picture did not like water so reworked it and enhanced the background wanted the boat to jump out. Let me know what you think.
First of all, Rob, I want to congratulate you on writing your longest narrative to date. Four full lines of text is an amazing feat coming from you. I can only assume how long it took to string together this monologue. You probably finished editing the image months ago and have been working on the narrative day and night for a month. Do yourself a favor and take a vacation. I'm sure the writer's cramp will fade in a few months.
Excellent work on the shot. Thank you for the explanation of your process. It makes the image that much more enjoyable.
