I stopped by India Point Park again at lunch today. It's my "go to" location if I'm limited in time during lunch, typically due to early afternoon meetings that cut into my street photography time. What struck me today was the cluster of people in this one location. The girl on the bench is sketching the shoreline. The couple on the left aren't a couple at all - they just met. There are two separate groups with kids in front of the bench, and both groups had just met. You'd never know any of this from the scene, though. It surprised me to learn that none knew each other until a few minutes before this photo was taken.

Post processing started with a brilliant cold filter in Topaz Adjust. I then adjusted adaptive exposure, regions, and contrast. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
