Playing around with Photoshop

Oct 01, 2008 1 Comment

I followed Elliott around with the camera this morning and then sat down to play with Photoshop for a bit. It’s such an addiction!

This one was originally pretty washed out, so I brightened, saturated and sharpened it a bit to bring it to life. I had to fight off some shadows on her face to show off that funny little expression…

This one, aside from being cropped, isn’t touched at all with Photoshop. The light made me happy and her expression is just very Elliott. I like it from my Mom-of-Elliott point of view.

The desaturated background in this one was actually an accident at first, as I meant to click ‘hue/saturation’ rather than ‘desaturate’. But….I liked the accident and went with it.
