Afloat, Phang Nga Bay National Park, Phuket, Thailand, 2016

The final six images on this gallery explore the appeal one of the most unique places on earth, Phang Nga Bay National Park. I begin this sequence with an abstracted “theme” image, featuring the colorfully decorated bow of a Thai boat. It is lashed to a dock, and features shadows cast upon the shimmering milky-green waters of Phang Nga Bay. The boat suggests a journey, while the shadowy dock seems to grasp its bow with a fraying rope.

You are right about that flower, Carol -- it is at the heart of this image, since it is a cultural artifact, and an important symbol to those who travel the waters here.

Love this abstract, Phil! It gives information on where and what it is as well as appearing quite eye catching.. The tiny flower(?) tied to the sash on the bow acts at the main focal point to me.
