Here's an image where scale works very effectively.

And here's a very fine tree

A delightful if not somewhat erotic statue

And with apologies to Eugene Smith...a walk in paradise garden. Rodney and his daughter sporting cameras

#2 is bit out there when you note the male is actually a fawn. Nothing like whimsy.......

The shots of Rodney and the girls are lovely.

#1 is magical as it is but could be more magical given the right light and no poles thus:

You have too much time on your hands! :D :D :D But I do like your conversion. Your photoshop skills are excellent. One point I would make...by deleting the 2 poles you have to some extent diminished the sense of scale and reduced the sense of depth (perspective) in the image. The other point I would make...are you confident that the image could be printed at 3 meters x 3 metres and your manipulations would not be evident? For instance....are the wires from the poles still evident and where do they lead to? :D :D
Having said all that I agree with you that the image has a great deal of potential and your addition of the light works wonders. Thanks for taking the time with it.

:mrgreen: Thank Matt. This took only about 5 minutes. Can show you the photoshop steps if you are keen.

I agree about the poles though. They do provide some perspective.
