How does the color look in the background treads? When I converted profiles, I had an unintended color shift, but I didn't bother rectify it here. Wondering your .02 @ the hue?
looks OK to me. maybe a tad pink, but generally realistic
BTW, I like the frame presentation better in the color
I think the textured frame in your first version adds little. A bit of competing, not complimenting the textures in the image. Might work better if there were a darker option to provide more contrast and containment of the image.
Hmmm, MA is "lines" ... what do you think, this one or the contrails? I'm leaning toward this one atm. Of course with the MA, there's a lot of month still left to go.
