Antonio,

If I only saw this, and purchased it for my home, I would be satisfied and enjoy the picture. I certainly wouldn't demand or even suggest changes! So, yes the following modified picture is a total surprise!

I would never have thought of such a change myself, but I can appreciate the transformation in making the picture appear to be an autumn photograph, steeped in sienna hues. This manouver works, I think, in part ascit simulates monochrome and so removes the immediate distinction of the fresh vibrant green leaves which stand out so strongly in the original. Now, as in a B&W photograph, we can bathe in the magic of form and texture rather than The emotive pull of stark color differences, even present natural color! Paradoxically, this colored image seems to behave as a fine monochrome print!

I must look at the original work by Guy Tal that inspired you.

Thanks for bringing these fresh ways of imagining nature to us!

Asher
