A pretty worthwhile rework of an older piece! The second image is the previous version. I felt the original lacked a little something in the form of atmosphere, the scene felt a little too clean an...

One of the piece I repainted recently - I liked the composition so I thought it would be a waste to not fix some mistakes I could see! Scenes with this sort of wide lens angle is always tough...
