The Trail from ??????

Image of the Trail in Ravine Gardens with the Azaleas blooming.

This image was taken at Ravine Gardens State Park in Palatka, Florida where it is known for their beautiful Azaleas. They were blooming a bit early this year so my Photo Club made a quick trip to catch the buds at just the right time. How could this beautiful flower lined trail be so bad? Word to the wise if planning a visit to this park. It is quite steep in places and the stones are very unevenly placed so it is a little tricky to hike on, especially if carrying a heavy camera around. In this Park’s defense, it was heavily damaged by Hurricane Michael last year and they are just getting it back up to speed. Not a lot was done to this image (after all it is of gorgeous Azaleas – what else do you need?) but of course I used my trusty Topaz (see sidebar for website link) Studio AI Clear. Just enhanced the steps with a spotlighting effect for where the sun was peaking through already, added a pink overlay to enhance the pink color, and added a little vignette. Lots of fun to explore!…..Digital Lady Syd
