Nik Rafin, despite being trained in photography, clearly has a flair for watercolour as well.One can almost see and feel the boats lightly bouncing due to the water current, the stillness of the air save for a gust of wind every now and then as well as the green hills in the distance, accompanied by a clear, calm sky. The realness of this piece is even more plausible as one glances at the waters – the accurate, detailed and careful reflections in the moving waters.
