"WOW" I really love this effect and this reminds me of the old Queenslanders homes, from where I use to live.
I love the coppertone processing that you have achieved, and love to know how you did this..... Stunning processing IMO.....
It actually looks like an etching.....
I hope you share this with us, after the challenge is over......
Adding this one as a favorite as well.....

Nice surrealistic image from "down under". I'd love to see the original of this someday to understand what the 'real' colors are.
