Well done!
The "Before" is a bit dull - both in color and contrast. You successfully tackled this problem with "After", turning it into a very compelling photo. I noticed you removed a few unwanted elements from the original image, and you certainly did a fine job there as well. A very well balanced composition, if I may add.
I used this "missed" shot to see what the newly acquired CS5 and Topaz programs could do. That was about 4 years ago. I have been well pleased with the artistic flexibility that these programs grant.
