Pine Needles

[Bear]

Got the bit between my teeth now.

From the same walkabout as the chamomile (separate thread entitled, unsurprisingly, Chamomile) came this, rather uninspiring, picture of a group of pine needles.



I decided to work it rather heavily in Photoshop and this is the result.



The processed version is offered for comments and critique. I am quite interested in people's reactions to the final picture and if you think it is an improvement over the original.

Definately an improvement over colour and contrast.
I can see the focus point but its all a bit bizy and uninteresting, just my opinion.

YES YES YES It's so much richer and vibrant, very arty - it's good to experiment with post processing and this proves it.

Hi

the second if definitely better than the first but I am with Ash about focal point. It needs something to grab you and pull you in.

best regards
