In case someone wondered... this is a pretty straight photograph, not some fancy photoshop trick. It is a metal plate hanging at the back of a flower shop on the local market.

This is the "original":

To me, there is a quality of japanese ink painting.

Sweet stuff as always. I like how it looks like an actual layered photoshop painting. :)

This is great...very innovative treatment.
"To me, there is a quality of japanese ink painting." - i agree/me too.

Thanks!

@Spike44: it's not layered... only the framing has been done artificially.

That's just great vision on your part and a with it, a great image! Nicely done. And yes, it is very "Japanese ink painting" like.

Thanks all.

@Cole_Schmitt: as you can see from comparing the original and the final version, I mainly cropped it, worked a bit on the curves and digitally framed the cropped scene.

cheers
