Hello Brian,
Interesting mood, really, with an appropriate composition, title en sepia conversion.
Personally however, I'm not sure about your choice for the fibre effect. To me, this photo expresses either a quest for peace or just desolation, but the fibre effect looks too "fizzy" for those two feelings. Only adding grain would have sufficed, I think.
My personal opinion/interpretation, of course. Feel free to (dis)agree ;o).
TFS & kind regards,
Erik

It looks like a Japanese stamp...Very good continuation of the effect! Excellent color!
TFS!

Hello Brian,
Another great posting. Fantastic the composition with the silhuet all around the frame. A very graphi and effecti effect.
I love it.
Best regards, jmb

Wow this is awesome! It looks like something from Van Gogh...seriously.
Amazing PP work, great result. I would have cloned out the small stick points on the left side of the picture right along the edge of the frame before doing PP work, but I still like the picture a lot.
Nice shot Brian!
