This image is from the Waterfront Park Amphitheater looking west. This is a magical place that affords a view of the Big Four Bridge and the Ohio River that many people aren’t aware exists. There are speaker and a sound system there that plays WFPK public radio music which is really a nice way to enjoy the view listening to music.

This image is from a three EV bracket set merged in NIK HDR Efex Pro 2 and tone mapped there before returning it to Aperture 3 for some adjusting and slight straightening of the horizon. After that I used some OnOne Perfect Effects presets dialed down to low strength to  enhance the final image. One filter I used was the Polarization filter; it is very good and really mimics the characteristics of a real polarizer by virtue of being able to “rotate” it when applying it to the image.

This is another image from that same shoot with similar post processing. The next time you are down in Waterfront Park take a stroll to the Amphitheater and discover another facet of our wonderful Waterfront Park.
