Now editing is where I spend the most
time. Without much money I never had any type of photoshop in the
past, so my ability to clean up or stylize a photo was very limited.
It was almost enough to cry, but emotion is so last season.
One morning, as I casually scanned the
internet and became quite lost in the webbing, I discovered a add for
a photo editing program that was on sale for three days. Bright-eyed
and excited for something to up the quality of my work, I downloaded
the trial. Then I fell in love. We are in a very comfortable
relationship now, though there are plenty of fights.
The program I now use, and have soo
much fun playing around with is Photoshop Lightroom 3.
The interphase is really easy, and
there are many ways in which I can alter and create photographs in my
very own way. It took me a while to get the hang of it. I end up
learning how to use something from messing around, not reading
instructions. If I get too carried away, the program tends to get a
little overloaded, though. The results are fantastic, but there are
limits and someday I would love to get a program like photoshop where
I can do more digital alterations. Until then, the exploration of some
free ones should prove quite entertaining.
Here are examples of some of my earlier
edits before and after:
