Farm in the City by taffy

Farm in the City

Taken at the children's petting zoo on my way back to my car. The petting zoo features farm animals and, in the winter, an ice skating rink in the middle - you can see skaters in front of the red barn-shaped building. This was another attempt to capture another contrast, this time farm and city.

I do like this photo but is there some graduated filter going on here/
January 23rd, 2014  
Fab
January 23rd, 2014  
@stevied Thanks Steve! Yes, I used a graduated filter post production to increase the saturation level. The sky had orange tones, but this was definitely post production to enhance. I use Color Efex as part of Nik Suite.
