Not sure if global warming brought us this, but it was a lovely summer day in March when this photo was taken. Here my wife was is playing with our grandson since his parents were working from home due to the Covid pandemic in combination with closed schools.
I was struck by the combination of the lovely temperature, the low March sun, the joy of both my wife and my grandson. This caused a very light-hearted feeling which I still feel when seeing this picture.
The digital processing technique for this photo was inspired by the mezzotint technique I admire very much.
This reminds me of the first illustrations I saw as a child in the old books of my parents and grandparents.
The mezzotint-ish technique applied to this photograph is a combination of several digital applications like Lightroom, Photoshop, Silverfast Studio, and NIK Color Efex Pro
