De-clutter a Picture

Today I am showing you an image I took yesterday in Port Burwell Ontario. I wanted to make it into an "artsy" pic so, through the magic of Photoshop, I took out all the elements of the shot that I didn't want in my finished picture. I also altered the perspective to straighten things up.

The animated gif shows the "before and after".

And here's my "artsy" for today... Tadaah! Click on it to see the detail.
