This photo was taken in Island Park, Idaho in February of 2023. The editing process included switching the photo to monochrome in Adobe Camera Raw and doing simple edits there, such as increasing the contrast, texture, and exposure. I sharpened the image and then used noise reduction.
In Photoshop, I used dodging and burning to highlight the horse’s eyes, hair, and hooves. I used this technique to bring dimension to any parts of the photo that were blown out.
The final piece was mounted on metallic material and hung in the communication department building.
