Very interesting use of grain to an extreme - at first view I was put off by it, but it's beginning to grow on me. It lends far more drama to the scene, especially to the sky, than probably was in the original capture. The framing is very nice, especially with the relatively empty foreground except for the nun walking toward the viewer. I think we forget sometimes that this is how photos used to look, before we had the ability to make them all smooth and shiny. Nice job.

The grain level is a little too high - I can see where use of it would add a feeling of a days gone by mood when placing the mood in relation to the old architecture of the buildings in the shot but too much detracts. The sky looks blown out in spots - either a gradient, levels or some burning will tone down the blown contrasts.

I like the composition, but too much grain IMO.

I'm not a huge grain fan but this seems to work. I like the composition with the woman walking toward you.

Grain possibly was a good idea, perhaps too much of it though?

The grain works great in this shot. At first I did not like the blown out sky, but the more I looked at it, it seems to bring attention to the cross in the sky, which gives more context to the photo.

Really does give it a surreal appearance with the high contrast and grain. I really like all of it except the sky appears to be blown out a bit, (maybe need a gradient filter?)otherwise very creative.

It's a great shot - especially with the nun walking towards the camera. I'm not into grain and don't see how it is benefiting this particular photo - but that's just me.

I like the post editing and the white of the woman's head scarf in the foreground. IT ties in with the sky.

I envy your surroundings! My niece went to Italy and Greece on a school trip a couple of weeks ago and of course this was on her tour. I like the processing, it could be hundreds of years ago.

THIS is WONDERFUL!!! I love the feel of this photo. The grain adds so much to it. It feels like you are coming upon another era with the girl walking towards you away from the scene. I really think this is awesome!

The noise and grain work well in this image. Its like a moment frozen in time.
