Two shots, tried to make the second look really old.
Comments on both if you could, thanks.

This is a tough one.
I was looking at it yesterday morning the first time, and yesterday afternoon again, and really don't quite know what to say.
The original is very, very similar to what my eyes see every day. (We live close enough to the woods here, I need not even go on an excursion to see this). And the weather we get (which is getting at my nerves by now) is also quite similar. So my immediate reaction is: Oh well. (Sorry, can't help it).

Now as to the PS work ... I'm ever so unsure about that. I am not sure it really looks that old and the very bright sky in the centre bugs my eyes a great deal. So I think I am coming to the conclusion that I personally don't like it that much.

But now it IS about time for the others to chime in and say what THEY think!!!

#2 has potentials. You turned an everyday scene into something a bit more abstract.
