Sun Kissed

I do love having a small patch of Blue Mountains sub tropical rainforest within 15 minutes walk from my house in Hazelbrook…..
I couldn’t work out what to do with this shot, there was soooo much green in it that the subject was lost.
My lovely wife saw it and suggested I select the colour only in the sun’s rays…...

Sun Kissed belongs to the following groups:

HDR Photography, Selective Coloring and The Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia
