Photoshop Elements Edited Photos
Last Sunday at tea, Julie and I were talking about Photoshop Elements. I am learning to use it for creating Digital Scrapbook layouts, but also for editing photos. Here is an example of the difference Photoshop Editing can make in a photo. This is a picture of Ethan from last Saturday, this was taken on the beach after Dad & Debbie's wedding. I knew it was going to be a great image, but the details were blown out and it needed some attention.
On the left is the image straight out of the camera on the right, the edited image.


You can see how much more detail & color I was able to get out of the image by editing it.

Laura has a great tutorial on how to edit photos on her blog Cameron Crazy Mom, this was my jumping off point, it's easier to do it her way than how I did it before. I do like to click on the "Quick" tab (at right) so that I can see the original image on left & edited image on the right, it helps me see what I'm doing, but I don't really know what I did to set it up to do it that way.

A Day at the Beach: July 21
Wednesday we went to Laguna Beach to spend the day with Dad & Debbie. It was overcast & cold, but the waves were high, all the surfers were out.

Picture Summer Day 5: Tall Drink of Water
My summer beverage of choice: Chai Tea Latte Frappuchino

These photos would be more effective if I just picked one, wouldn't they. Ok so I'll pick this one & not show my insecurity by showing you 2.

My Father's Wedding Day
Yesterday my Father and Debbie were married. It was a beautiful day, and a lovely wedding.
The happy couple

The location & guests (click & click again on flickr for larger view)

"It was a sight beyond compare. I ought to know, for I was there."
