Photoshop

So we recently purchased Photoshop Elements to do some photo editing since I couldn't do everything that I wanted with some of the free programs out there (Picasa is pretty good for a free program but didn't have everything).


The program has tons of options of things to do and I am just starting to get into it. One of the best things so far is the ease of blotting out pieces of the picture that you don't want. It really helps to take an ordinary picture and kick it up so that it really pops.





The first picture is the original. The second has been touched up to remove the ugly sign from in front of it. The third, I played with the colors and made the photo look a little older. It takes a little bit of time sometimes (mostly when I am messing around with seeing what it can do) but makes for some very pretty pictures.

Great job with photoshop taking away the sign, I've only recently discovered the clone tool on mine, and I've had this Photoshop CS2 for a few years.

I just met your blog, I like it, and look forward to reading more.
