Can You Spot the Photo Bombing Kids?

Image of trail with pink azaleas at Ravine Gardens State Park in Palatka, Florida

This image is another one of Ravine Gardens National State Park in Palatka, Florida. In March the trail is filled with Azaleas. As I was post-processing this image, it felt a little weird to me but I was not sure why. Then I discovered the three kids hidden in the upper center background who were patiently waiting for me to finish my shot before trouping down the trail – it really startled me to see them in perfect focus back there!

For this image, Luminar (see sidebar for website link) Flex was used in Photoshop first – the Accent AI Filter 2.0, Details Enhancer, Image Radiance, HSL, Dodge & Burn, Highlights/Shadows, and Vignette filters were applied. A Color Lookup Table was added using a preset from Photofocus. Topaz (see sidebar for website link) Studio’s Impression was applied using the default and set to 71% layer opacity in Photoshop. I find these garden images very difficult to post process due to the dappled light patterns. Still a beautiful place to visit…..Digital Lady Syd
