I vote trash. Its a good heron shot and I don't think the scribble effect adds anything to it. its good for a quick smile but I think the original shot is better w/o it.
Harry http://behret.smugmug.com/NANPA member How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
I think the effect works okay on most of the print. Where it doesn't work for me is on the "heron's beak". The rest of the shot has a non-offensive colored pencil sketch look - and somewhat works to get rid of any background. But the beak area the effect gets carried away and serves no purpose. IMHO
I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.
