 * I am trying to call the description field of an image wtih shortcodes intact,
   however, it currently displays the shortcode code rather than the actual shortcode.
 *     ```
       <?php $attachment_content = apply_filters( 'the_title', $attachment->post_content ); ?>
       											<span class="rsTitle rsABlock rsNoDrag rsAbsoluteEl" data-fade-effect="true" data-move-offset="0" data-move-effect="right" data-speed="350"><?php echo $attachment_content; ?></span>
       ```
