Elements Put to Work

So, I took this photo the other day….and I hated it.

It was just so blahhhh.

But I really wanted to like it, so I played.

Sprayed:

Red:

Black and White background:

High pass (whatever that means!):

And, Old Paper:

I *think* I like the sprayed and old paper best….any thoughts?  Was it even worth saving do you think?
