Spring Impressions Arundel

This is a combination of 3 images to bring together aspects of spring. Images were blended in Photoshop using layers and reduced opacities and layer masks. The first image was a bank of Tulips with the walls of Arundel Castle in the background. Next came a bluebell wood near Slindon and finally a shot of some blossom at Arundel again was thrown into the mix.

All the images were single images first processed in RAW. After blending I then used Topaz Clarity for more detail. The final edit used Topaz Glow using the Soft Bloom preset at 71% opacity. This was applied on a duplicate layer and a layer mask used to remove the effect from a few of the Tulips and bluebells.
