Lamp Post in Balboa Park, Framed by spring tree blossoms | San Diego, CA

I captured this photo in Balboa Park (San Diego, CA) as the trees were starting their springtime explosion of flowers. This photo is the result of some Photoshop layer fun, manipulating the background of flowering trees into a surreal, painted effect with Topaz Simplify, while maintaining and enhancing the textures of the street light with Topaz Clarity.
