My personal preference is the original, though the second is intriguing.

I like #1 and #2 for different reasons. #1 for more what did it look like kind of experience. #2 for more fine art experience. #2 is actually my favorite.

#2 is my favorite and reminds me of Van Gogh and his starry night picture ... also see a fish face :c)

Well that was unexpected, but yes I see the fish now.

Try just a dry brush effect with a filter or just accented edges..
