A nice image in itself, but I think the fake vintage treatment adds to it. Although I haven’t gone over the image with a magnifying glass, I felt the lack of any obvious modern landmarks gave it a more realistic feel. What d’ya reckon?

A nice shot of the dock, I love what you did here Dave, it really does look like old parchment paper. Great work.

Very cool effect. Could proudly be displayed in someone’s home
Lovely ageing in this Dave.
Thanks for your comments folks, as I wrote in my blog "A nice image in itself, but I think the fake vintage treatment adds to it. Although I haven’t gone over the image with a magnifying glass, I felt the lack of any obvious modern landmarks gave it a more realistic feel. What d’ya reckon?"
It looks great, the treatment certainly adds to it. The composition is what i like though. Three distinct horizontal layers fading as the eye moves up the image, like a gradient. Nice.
i thinks that this art work is like a abacsrtt type painting, the techniques that the painter used was, the collisions of the colors, the colors that he/she put was in a way i think is very good, because the colors are attacking each other. the elements and principals that the painter used are, line,shape,form,unity,space. i think these are the ones because the painter showed all these things and as well making it obvious. i think this was a great piece because the colors makes me feel good in a way, its really good to look at. Some thing to improve on is to lessen the green because it looks like that the green is dominant, but i would rather like it if all the colors are even.
