3x tangled photos

In a tangle:

1st: Original photo

2nd: edit

3rd: manip

Came across this tree in my local botanical garden. It looked too weird to not photograph. I think I got the framing right with it.
Thoughts?

It didnt need the editing In my opinion.. It looks good by its self.. good framing composition etc.. Its a nice photograph.

That's not harsh cnc

Thanks though, appreciate it!

I really liked the edit, good job on that, the manip not so much..
but as lewk said, the photo looked good on it's own xD

No doubt the regular photo looks best. The 3rd belongs in the trashcan ^u^

I really like how you only included the top of the tree, this way it's much more interesting than it would be if you'd included the whole tree.

Good job I'm liking this one!

I made the edit and manip not out of necessity, but enthusiasm. Wanted to play around with the effects to stretch what could be considered authentic. (Of course with the manip I just wanted to go in a completely different direction).

Thanks for the replies.

^^Spammer.. O.o

Anywho.. Original photo is the best.. The edit is pretty cool, but would be awesome if you could get the sky to stay that same nice blue and have them leaves go red.. That would be a nice final touch
