I like this image ... the tree on the right nicely balances things ... but something about it makes it look too ... erm ... busy IMO. Perhaps the added noise or a bit too heavy of a hand on the sharpening? I also think that the sepia could have been toned down a bit but that is just a personal preference thing.
