Well done. Underrated because of uninformed photography "purists"

Interesting choice of treatment. I can see what you were trying to achieve with it, though I am divided as to whether it works for this scene. The real problem may be trying to show off this interesting treatment with only 720 pixels.

Interesting shot, but there's a weird texture thing going on here like you've scanned this from an old book or something.

I think a wider shot would have helped, what you can see is interesting enough but I would like to see more.

You nailed the feel, color too, except for the kayak, this could very well be a vintage card. Nicely done

I think the linen look is at odds with the moder/action spirit of the shot. Had It been a lodge at a national park or Coney Island it would have worked. I like the idea, i like the shot, but I don't think they work together.

This is just fabulous! I love old postcards and you have hit the nail on the head with this one. The scene is simple a sense on excitement for the person receiving it in the mail. Great Job!!

This is really cool! I like the picture itself, but the processing is great for the challenge.

I don't know how to rate this because, as I understand them, the rules for this challenge did not allow for the addition of a canvas artistic filter. On the other hand it is a very effective image and concept. I'm not going to complain about it - I like it.

The structure of this looks like linen, or the page of a book. Nice colors.
