Description
'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner'
[stanzas 115-122]
'Day after day, day after day,
We stuck, nor breath nor motion;
As idle as a painted ship
Upon a painted ocean.
Water, water everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, everywhere,
Nor any drop to drink'
Half repaired boat hull ....in long months of mooring (Northcote Point - Auckland, NZ)

What an increadible discovery. This abstract is wonderful in colour. I would even go more saturated to bring out the differences. In another version, I would then go . . . yes you guessed it, B&W then duo-toned to get those rich textures. BRAVO! I LOVE THIS ONE!!!
gorgeous shadows and textures, Ad! Amazing the gorgeous designs on the boat hull!
superb, a nice mix of texture and colour ;)
Thanks Egmont... I had a look at beefing up the saturation a bit but it meant losing the ambient, washed out, partially transparent feeling I quite liked here... it looks a bit bluey for the same reason... thecontrast is in the gazing... But thanks for your suggestion.
Another interesting texture, well done !! :o)
Here I love your text...not saturated at all...you little poet :-)
Superb textures... a most interesting compo !
I have been in Mooring for many Moons....and My Bottom is covered in Barnacles....here You Write My favourite Passage of the "Ancient Mariner"....and it reminds Me of Sailing the Doldrums...salute
That wonderful poem matches perfectly to your gorgeous image! Such amazing textures! Man, you really have the eye for this stuff!
Love those Rimes, and your wonderful textures go so well together with the words!
Beautiful pastel colors once again! So soft and calming!!
I've always admired your ability to find and capture beautiful colors and textures in your work.... this one is spectacular.....
