I was trying to catch that moment at the end of the day when the sun picks out from under a dark cloud. I used my drypoint technique with plenty of leftover ink and some watercolour.
The first picture is the original print, the second is after running it through Enlight app applying the “daffodil” filter.
I don’t think either version captured what I was trying to convey.
Then I found a second copy I had filed away, here with a little colour brightening after photography.
