Post Processing Challenge #253 - Old Shed & Sky

I shot this in May of this year. I have never really spent much time on the PP on this picture - I'm posting a fairly recent generic JPG below. There is no angle to capture this shed without also capturing the power lines - which can be a plus or minus depending on your aesthetic. I elected to remove them in my B&W image, but I have left them in on other attempts at this image. This was shot using my K-3 and an SMC DA 15. I hope you all enjoy tinkering with it.

Let's end this the evening of Friday March 30 - New York time.

very nice image - a fairly subtle, dreamy approach seemed appropriate to me

You removed the lines quite effectively. I have had mixed results with other images. This removal looks natural to me at the current resolution I am viewing it at.

I wasn't 100% as careful as I'd be if making a print or entering a competition perhaps, but it's passable, I think

Great Photo, Uncle Vanya. I have a feeling you're going to get a bunch of entries.

Surprisingly challenging. The basic shot was so good, that it was really tempting to go with just minimum changes and hard to figure out how to make it look different.

It will be difficult to pick a winner, but it is interesting to see the subtle differences each person brings to the image.
