Love the COMP but I am with Denise on the colors. Best I can say about them is Yuck! Can you totally change the colors???

I agree with the others...the colors are really not attractive but the comp is so nice! Did you try to change the colors before or after you did the technique? I think if you tried it before it would make more of a difference.
I'd try a hue adjustment on the original and see if that gave you any different results.
Fabs: Thaks for trying to play with this one. I tried all of the hue changes. I wasn't excited by any of them. Here is the original...it is really a funny green-brown color in nature. I am not too bothered by the original colors.
