The Journey Past

Took this just today, please tell me how to improve.

well .. some manipulation here ...

I used filters, a sepia gradient and a ND gradient. After that I proccesed from RAW and simply brought out the colours a bit more. If you look close enough, you can just tell where the filters are.

I have nothing agains manipulation!! don't get me wrong. But it is maybe to much visible for my personal taste here .. is all so subjective!! I like more kindof desaruration ... :) and now the real black got a bit orange ..

 

compositon is very nice.
