Before and After - Emerging Sunflower

Saturday, October 30, 2021 | By: Mike Moats Photography

I'm in a field of sunflowers and came across this emerging sunflower getting ready to pop open. I placed one of my backgrounds behind it and shot it at/22 to get good depth of field. I like the leaves and how they were positioned below the flowers head.

 

I take the image into my favorite program, Smart Photo Editor, and first crop the image.  Then I run through the pages of filters in Smart Photo Editor, looking for something interesting to happen.  I came to the filter that mirrors the image, so as you see, the leaf on the left side is repeated on the right side, and same with the flower and the leaf below the flower head, left side repeated on the right side.  I then found a filter that added a spotlight on the flower.  Applied a sharpening filter and I'm done.  Hope you like it.
