Queen City

Description

Here is my home town, the Queen City. It was discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it Cincinnati, which of course in German means a whale's vagina... I'm sorry... I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.

I took two different photographs to achieve this effect; one focused, one unfocused. I blended the two images together in Photoshop CC and screened the unfocused image for transparency to get the bokeh. I did some selective burning of the sky and water's shadows for a vignette and I dodged the midtones of the entire image. To conclude, I increased the vibrancy of the photograph by +60 to make it more vivid.
