Afterward I did my processing in Photoshop and used unsharp mask on just the foreground stalks including background between the stalks back to where the shadow starts. After sharpening I used Topaz Adjust 4 plug in for Photoshop to help pop out the bright light in the background stalks. I find Topaz Adjust to be one of the most useful plug=ins on the market.Emery Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764300703571229622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189942683079884296.post-52404307217186979182011-04-03T09:55:02.044-05:002011-04-03T09:55:02.044-05:00I'd to hear your commentary as below on how yo...I'd to hear your commentary as below on how you managed to get the depth of field in this shot.Randy Fertelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14046826804796165297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189942683079884296.post-115412481937120222011-04-03T09:25:01.235-05:002011-04-03T09:25:01.235-05:00We get winter once a week with breaks of springish...We get winter once a week with breaks of springish in between.
