    Interesting, to say the least. Is it a Photoshop creation or something you found painted on a wall? A little of each, maybe?

    Thank you so much Richard, I really appreciate your feed-back :)

    It is a composite of 3 shots that I put together to convey the idea of weathered...

    (I'm participating in the "Mc#12 - Withered, Weathered or Worn" and wanted some opinions
    on the job I've done, from people that are not directly involved)

    Here are the 3 photos:

    I don't have to stick with it though... I'm sure I can find other subjects :)

    Thank you again,

    Wow, great use of layering and textures. I wouldn't have thought that was a real photo at all! Very interesting!

    Clever result from your pieces parts. Very well done thumb.gif Nice quality
    overall. Tough thing deciding which efforts one has to go with as a
    contender. My first impression is that this one is very strong and
    in theme. No reason not to see it among those rotated in the dgrin
    banner every day.

    Wow! I've been wondering exactly how you got that. At first I thought it was a painting on wood, but then that didn't seem quite right.
    I'm in awe of your PP skills!

    You are so good w/ post processing.

    This works for me. Something very different, and I keep saying "different" is good.

    Thank you Liz,

    I think that "different is good" too, if it's in the range of good...

    - I just wanted to make sure I was not out :)

    +1 for me. I find it attractive, in that there is something that draws me in. Your processing really brings out his character...much more so than the original image. Very well done. If I had to attach one defining comment to it, I'd have to say the I like "it's artistic presence." I know that's a bit abstract, but that's how I see it.

    Thanks for sharing.
