Dramatic Tone Art filter with frame applied
At f/5.6 the background is nicely blurred here

Colours are bright and punchy straight from the camera

Shot at f/4 to limit depth of field. Taken with the new M. Zuiko 12mm f/2.0 lens and manually focussed on the eyelashes

The ESP system puts in a good performance and colours look natural, yet vibrant

The transition from light to dark along the cobbles has been well handled here

Compare with the image below

The shadow and highlight adjustment feature has been pushed to maximum to darken the highlights and brighten the shadows to produce this HDR-like image

Taken with the same tonal adjustment options as the image above, to produce another low-contrast HDR image
