Thank you all for your comments.
I shall try to find the time to have another go at it (spending some time on it rather than the original rush job).
I will also post a link to a larger version, when I find that elusive time

I think this could work as a sort of "pop-art" project, including the posterization, if you added some vibrant color. Just take it so far from the original subject that it becomes something else. Come to think of it, I don't even know what the original subject is anyway.

The photograph is of the bow of a motor gun boat (MGB 81) taken exactly straight on, at water level from an inflatable dinghy.

An alternative version :-

Less contrast, no filters and not so abstract.

I like this one better Hyram. If you want to achieve a more abstract feeling, you could consider expanding the canvas on the left side of the bow, and copy /paste the right hand side mirror wise.
That would push people of balance......if executed well.
Anyhow......the last one appeals a lot more to me.
