Oceanic Mapping

This is a map that I did for a story about fishing on the high seas. In order to tell the story with a sleek design, I had to process complex raster data using photoshop. The intent of this map design was to provide a subtle oceanic texture using bathymetry under the main-focus data, while blending seamlessly into the white background of the page.
