Wow...what did you do to your picture damn? It looks like you used photoshop way to much on the shadows and highlights you also over did the colors and if you sharpened it unsharpen it. At the same time I have to say its unique to the style of old postcard look I don't know I am confused on what to tell you. If your aim is for old style post cards that are supposed to look fake you hit it just right.

Looks way over-processed. Lack of focus.

Something wrong with this, too much sharpening has destroyed the natural look. It's way overdone.

Thanks for that comment, and alot of people thought it was blown, re the whites, but when converted to gradient map, this is how it turned out, and I really like the HIGH KEY approach. I left it like this, as a strong black and white image, you see here.

Also many thenks for all of your wonderful comments throughout the challenge, and also after the results. I am pleasd with this one as I thinl it may be my first black and white image entered into a challenge before. U wanted it to be dramatic.....
