Taking Off at Tulip Field

This picture was shot on a tripod with three exposures (-2..0..+2 EV). I used Photomatix to create the HDR with tone mapping and detail enhanced. I increased the overall saturation with Hue/Saturation in Photoshop. Curve adjustment to increase the overall contrast. 1 layer mask in soft light mode at 50% gray, using brush tool to lighten and darken some areas of the image, to bring out details. Topaz Clarity for additional boost in color and contrast.

 

Hot Air Balloon taking off at Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival. Went with friends on Sunday for some photography at the tulip field. So glad that there were a couple of hot air balloons launching that day.
