User / thor_mark  / My Time for a Getaway in Shenandoah National Park
Mark Stevens / 9,641 items
A setting looking to the north while taking in views to a nearby Flowering Dogwood. This location is at Swift Run Overlook in Shenandoah National Park. In composing this image, I wanted to minimize what I felt was the negative space of the overcast skies and have the tree to my front fill as much of the image, while still including some backdrop of the distant mountainside and ridges. Because of the nearness of the rock wall, I was forced to include a little bit of that but attempted to figure out a way have it add to the setting of foreground interest.

I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation in DxO PhotoLab 7. I then exported a TIFF image to Nik Color Efex Pro 7 where I added a Polarization, Foliage, and Pro Contrast filter for that last effect on the image captured.
