Looks like you had a lot of fun working on this shot Ruud - Very well done. And I think the owners of the houses would agree with me. Good PP work, thank you,

love the PP post, the original is too drab and nothing really interesting. the pp work gave it pizazz. good job. see you too are experimenting. some may say it is not photography I call it a combination take something good and make it better use creativity , good for the mind.

Hi Ruud,

Super!!! I rersonally prefer this one (and yes, I think this is photography)! Very artistic and different from the usual ones! It certainly caught my eye! :)
Great the effect which you gave it! It looks like a painting!
Very well done!

Did the original image come from a camera? Then it's a photo!!! :))) It's a different kind of photo, but there's nothing wrong with that! And to think we're in the infancy of the digital age...who knows what we'll be doing ten years from now!

I like it very much, Ruud. You made a silk purse out of an ordinary photo! :)

Well.... who cares about what others say Ruud. First is whether you like the result or not, unless the result should be commercialized......
For what it's worth.... I like the result a lot! Don't start to discuss these items with (former) students of the Art Academy..... the still seem to be livin' in the stone ages ("badderen" noem ik het maar). The result is great and to my opinion a new kind of art to be developped further and further!

Excellent post processing, I like the feel you've created here. I hope you don't mind, I've tried a workshop to see what this would look like with a more "pastels" feel. Nice product!

This is fun! I enjoyed going throuygh the workshops you posted. This is much more appealing than the original. The final version looks like an old tapestry.
