Processed with PaintShop Pro, Exposure 6, Luminar AI, and various Topaz plugins.
Really like the concept and the PP work, but overall it is a bit too dark for my tastes. IMHO, of course...
The carpenter used hand saw and drill worked hours, the artist labored diligently to achieve a vision. Now my saw is powered, my drill battery convenient, and my photo post-processing filled with magic AI-empowered clicks.
When I started photography as a child a roll of 120 was treasured and I tried to duplicate what I saw in art books. Now like you, I have PaintShop Pro, Exposure 6, Luminar AI, and various Topaz plugins which car create worlds that do not exist and convey moods imagined. Your modified photo puts us on a different world and we are concerned about getting thru the tangled vegetation that AI has created. Excellent for a SiFi story, well done.
The original is calm and peaceful. Your creative processing on the second gives it a stormy feel for me. It appears the wind is blowing the foliage around and a storm is on the way! Nice work!
