    Yes you are “crazy like a coconut”
    You have totally lost the plot and should be cared for by professionals.

    In all honesty though it looks good to me. I think you may be on thin ice
    as far as the photography purests go but i like it. It has hammer horror feel to it.

    What did you do you nut?

    I like it because it is “thinking outside the box”

    reminds me of a pen and ink drawing………

    Just me two cents worth

    It is OTT without a doubt, but what a fantastic OTT processing.
    I really like the end result here although I agree that it might not be for everyone… but hardly any photograph is for everyone anyways!

    Great stuff!

    Thanks for the comments, all. This, believe it or not, is the less OTT version of the original.. The original is colour.

    It’s a 6 image HDR, tone mapped and then given a few tweaks courtesy of Mr & Mrs curves, levels and desaturation / toning. Oh, and don’t forget uncle unsharp mask!

    As said by the others this is a bit over the top and looks more like a drawling but i do like it. I would say that this would print really nice.

    I do like this look of this

    but is it leaning to the right??? or is it just an optical illusion

    Afraid it’s an optical illusion! Believe me – I spent ages making sure it was straight with guides in photoshop, as like you, I was convinced it wasn’t!!

    Yes, you have gone mental.
    Yes, it’s way over the top.
    Yes, I can imagine a poster size print of this.

    Interesting and nice.

    Yeap, you’re nuttier than a sack full of squirrels.

    You could’ve told me this was an acid etching or something like that and I’d have believed you.
