Looking forward to the story on this one. |
Each year, an area farm puts on a harvest festival with many things for kids to do. We took my daughters and grandson for an afternoon. There was a large dark barn with open sides. Swings hang from the tall rafters. The person swinging in this image looked like a silhouette against a light-colored climbing wall beyond the far side of the barn. It took several shots to have a pose without feet twisted or arms flailing. Perhaps I could have waited for a more petite subject, but you can't abandon family in such settings.
After leveling and cropping to 16:9 ratio, I applied a threshold adjustment layer and used a healing brush to remove a few persistent blotches on the background. I made a separate version with a bit more white added at the bottom. That looks better, but such expansion is not allowed in DPC standard editing. |
