Playing around with some Photoshop effects. Thoughts?

Not sure if I really like the effect or not but out of the two I prefer the first one.

Nice to see different takes on a picture but not sure this technique is for me.

Yea, I think I agree. Here's one last one. It's better but I'm not sure I'll persevere with it:

Find the first of greater interest to me, but great to play with effects, just to see the result.

Re: Afternoon Sun - Abstract

Well I like abstract images, photons locked for ever more. A picture of a tree reminds us of something we see everyday, but the abstract effect is something different. I'd carry on and develop the style, it's different and somewhat original.

Well, I might give it another try. It's a composite of about 10 exposures taken by walking around the tree and then blended together. I think it has some potential but I need to get the post-processing and trunk alignment working better.
