Good choice in desaturing the image. Maybe you can make the art on the wall less opaque so the stones will be visible through the images.

Indeed I was thinking of something like that, but I wasn't sure if I could manage to get the effect. I'll give it another try later. Thanks for the remark!

Howdie stranger! If you want to rate this picture or participate in this contest, just:
The lighting on the crow (the top of his head is not illuminated) is not consistent with the lighting on the scarecrow, and the crow is casting no shadow onto the scarecrow at all...The Dodge Tool set to low (5-10%) for Midtones or highlights with a speckled brush should help with the lighting on top, and the Burn Tool set to highlights at about 10-12% with a large soft edged solid brush should help give you shadow on the scarecrow. Make sure to work on a duplicate layer, to preserve your original.

Well, I put a little more work on it. I hope there's been improvement. Thanks for your remarks!
If anything, just make the crow's foot more visible because that adds a bit of 'evil' to the overall intent in the crow's expression. The scarecrow's expression (and of course the irony of it!) are priceless too. Excellent work.
