I really like the muted tones in this textured version. I agree that the image would benefit from a bit less of the texture in certain places. I particularly miss the detail of the flock of birds which gets lost with the overlay. What a lovely swoop of white fencing to move the eye around the scene. Shooting from a slightly different or wider angle may have allowed you to include all of the far right portion. Try to get some close ups of these guys. They're really impressive looking creatures.

I agree about the dodging and burning.. It would make this great photo even better. The B&W, film grain and border is a great fit to give more feeling to this shot.

Just a slight bit of erasing would fix this up nicely! Nice bucolic scene grunged up great work!

My favorite of the two, by far. The crop definitely makes the shot, as does your "swoosh" texture which adds to the wonderful sense of movement.
