This image was processed in Aperture 3 as a RAW file before being taken into NIK HDR Efex 2 where I used the Structure 1 preset where I then boosted exposure, shadows, highlights, contrast and structure. I then returned the image to Aperture 3 where I boosted definition, contrast and vibrancy followed by sharpening.
Another awesome dynamic image with different, complementary lines: the bridge, the paved path that is almost but not quite parallel to the bridge, and then the shadows (of the trees?) falling at a pronounced angle to the other two. You’re so blessed to have a park like that from which to make these beautiful images! We have such a park here in the Hudson Valley too–it’s in a city that has just been declared one of the USA’s ten most dangerous. Gives “drive-by shooting” a whole new meaning for photographers….
Yes Nancy those are trees. The park is very geometric in it’s design which is why the shadows are so evenly spaced. Thanks for your input.
The colors and the swings really grabbed me on this image…soothing, peaceful and inviting!
Thank you Phyllis.
You have so wonderful photos! Beautiful to watch!
Thank you for the kind words Anna.
