Captured 1/2/13, mid day, about one half of a mile from my humble haven.
Gotta have fun sometime.
A ZOOM is necessary in this instance, if for nothing else but to enjoy the definitive detail.
Original on top.

Excellent variations!! The third one down is my favorite!!

This is a perfect shot for variations; many would go right past it, but the different treatments really point out the features that probably caused you to capture the scene in the first place. Well done indeed, Harry!

The top one is sweet by itself---I love the desolation of those two trees and their shadows. Whatever may be out-of-frame here, the section you focussed on feels very forlorn and desolate. The long wall between the two "events" (ie, the trees) is very fine, as is that little utility box between them, and the lone lines and pole, and of course the sweeping lines and detritus of the sidewalk and road area. It's really a snapshot of urban desolation, with a deep bleaching mid-day sun. Terrific urban work, Harry. Like Denise says, it's a terrific image for manipulations (because of its openness to 'abuse', transformation, etc). The second one, a van Gogh-like painting, makes everything pulsate. The third one is totally in line with the original, in that you've made a Depression Era sepia out of it, the kind of shots you saw from the Farm Security Administration photos of the 30s and 40s. That sky and the way the sepia plays off the sidewalk make this a real Depression Era shot. The 4th is like the 2d, only with broader pulses, and very undulating fiery tongues. The tree on the left reminds me of the "burning bush," from Exodus. ("Reminds me"---I wasn't there, lol, I didn't get any iPhone shots from Moses; but it reminds me of reading about it...the shadows and tree are aflame.) And the last shot is a logical conclusion to the bunch, an apocalyptic end-of-days sky, what looks like inverted hues on the trees and wall, and contrasts reminiscent of some of your multi media pieces. Fine treatments of a very fine original---fine work all around, Harry.
