Default Latest Work with Textures - Backlit Willet

I took the tips received on DPS (special thanks to Lightwriter - I learned how to use layer masks) and this is the result. Please provide critique on texturizing, lighting, and saturation.

Great result! I think I prefered the golden light of the last one (don't change it on my account, though ) but all in all this looks great! I left a comment on your Flickr page, too.

Thanks Lightwriter. I liked the golden light also, but this toned down look seems to fit the scene and it felt right when I got it to here. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your help. You have opened up a whole new approach for my photographs. Not just the textures, but the Layer Masks - now that I know how to use them - are absolutely wonderful. Thanks also for the comment on Flickr.
