 Over processed? who knows.

I went to a (recently) abandoned apple orchard to take some shots and this one was one of the last I took, just before I went back home.

I did alot of editing on this one... many selective gaussian blurs + neat image to kick out the noise. Then levels, curves, selective color, dodge and burn; lather, rinse repeat. I finnaly got the editing to a point that I liked when I decieded to go for a tighter crop. So, I had do redo the effects on the smaller image. An USM on the barn/fence, and voila, 13 re-submissions later.

Interesting image, I like the idea, but the image seems a bit too dark.

a little less foreground would be better

This has a beautiful feel to it but I'm wondering if perhaps you've over-used the burn tool because it appears detectable.
