Hi David,
Wonderful "negative" impression, superb soft contrast like the bluish sepia colour tone in this image. A fine contribution to the theme my friend.

Hi David, the 3 images look interesting. I think I prefer the sepia toned one.
The grasses stand out quite strongly - It's a good image to work on

Hello David
I heard of an old portraitist who used to retouch 4x5 negatives with special pencils.
That was quite an art!
I think a negative view is often more captivating than a positive because the imagination has to work longer to recognise shapes...and it provides for shure an artistic view.
Your work provides an early-winter-like impression at first glance.
G'day.

This works beautiful David.
I was the first to open your picture, but then you had not yet uploaded the WS - so now I could have a look at that as well. I think this one works out the best.
Like a painting with ink.

Have a nice weekend, with cleaner air,

Hello David,

This feels really cold and icy!
That just proves the effects that colours have, since the w/s clearly shows a much warmer scene!
Superb composition, as always.

Have a good weekend, my friend, and I hope the smoke has disappeared,
Bev :-)

It looks perfectly natural, yet "snowy", in this version, David. But I'm glad you included the other versions as well in the ws, now it's clear what we're looking at ;o).
Excellent details in here, I like the toning too.

Hi David

Fantastic entry in the 'negative view' theme, with an almost infra red look & feel. Good conversion to b&w, with an attractive pale blue sepia tone. Tfs!

Interesting effect - hard to tell if it's a picture of woodland in the distance or a close-up of the floor and grass and weeds.
Thanks for sharing

The negative view makes an interesting abstract kind of shot, but your color version in workshop is beautiful as well. This shot takes on a different personality whether viewed as the thumbnail or full size. It would make a lovely enlargement as well!
Take care,
Karen

HI David, this is a very attractive image. The composition is excllent and some good PP work. I prefer this to the other versions it looks like a winter/snow scene. The layers are good and great background. Very nice job.
