Watercolor filter and some saturation:

hi Schrox,

b/c the original is soft (slightly OOf), IMHO, the only one that really works is #2. In the 1st and last, the fact that the image is soft and grainy really detracts. In #2, it almost looks like it was done on purpose.

just my $0.02.

Thanks for the critique Colleen. Yes the original was OOF, I just think it's fun to take a picture that misses the mark and tweak it some and see what happens.
