This image was first processed with Neat Image noise reduction and sharpening, then Topaz Labs Spicify selectively brushed in via a mask layer. Then a topaz Labs Details layer again brushed in via mask layer followed by Dfine 2.o sky filter to enhance contrast and reduce noise. Then a dodge layer (soft light blend) selectively applies to the sand on the wood path followed by a burn layer (soft light blend) brushed into the grain of the wood and the shadows. Ravenel Bridge can be seen in the right horizon in Charleston, SC! Was a spectacularly clear morning as the sun had just risen above the horizon behind me and to my right. Also along the way, I used the clone stamp tool to remove a sign from the garssy hill to the right of the path near the horizon.
