My dog and I had to share the trail today with this young lady on her Clydesdale. Not a particularly good shot but I'm posting it because I've been playing around with the neural filters in Photoshop and tried the depth blur on this image. I've tried it before and been unsatisfied with the results but it worked quite well on this one. The original was shot at f8 and the trees behind the horse were in focus but the depth blur filter has quite realistically blurred the background while leaving the subject sharp. It works in the same way that portrait mode works on an iPhone but here it can be applied after the fact and it gives you more control by allowing you to set certain parameters. AI is taking over folks and it's not necessarily a bad thing.

@ethelperry If you subcribe to Adobe's Photography Plan then you should get all the updates as soon as they are released. If your version of PS predates the subscription model then you would be amazed at all the changes they have made over the last few years. It would definitely be worth looking into the subscription plan.
