Gorgeous. liked and voted.

Carla, this does look so "Monetish", if I may use artistic license here! It is a beauty for sure and somewhat impressionistic looking as such! I think that Monet was very much of a "Romantic", as evidenced by his beautiful and soulful looking paintings of Water Lilies! Love this work, so I am back for a revisit! Fave!

Thank you, Marsha. Interesting, I did very little to the original capture. Not sure how/why, but it had an impressionistic look to it from the start, which pleased me immensely! Glad it looked Monet-ish to you!!

Carla,I love this Monet looking photo. Great work dear. Thanks for your comment. Hugs,Marsha V

Thank you, Lenore! Interestingly, I didn't do much editing of this image... Somehow, the initial capture rendered an impressionistic view of Monet's water lilies, which was perfect!!

Who would not love this? Fabulous! I love the composition as well as colors and mood. Beautifully done! v/f

Thank you for the fave, Helen!

I love your little imagined scenario, Kimberlee! Love that you found this image inspirational!! Thanks for your kind comment and for taking the time to share what you did!

This is truly beautiful and inspirational, Carla! I am imagining now (as an artist myself) as I look at this dreamy scene that there is somewhere nearby a very polished High Society French woman with a beautiful pastel colored dress on, as well as a hat, and, of course, an umbrella to shield her delicate skin from the sun. Perhaps she is having tea and is seated next to this body of water. As she sips slowly on her tea, she contemplates what it would be like to go out on a small boat, like a rowing boat! The sun's rays would gently shine all around her to create a wonderful impressionistic scene!

Thank you so much, Heidi!

Very beautiful work, Carla! f/v

Susan, I really appreciate the feature in Women Photographers group!

Thanks so much, Georgia. The experience of visiting the lOrangerie museum and seeing the canvases is one that will stay with me all my life. They were beautiful beyond my expectations....

Thanks so much, Ana Maria! That's what I was aiming for!

Thank you, Henryk.
