    Default Since I can't actually draw....

    ... I thought that I would make this first photo up into a Chalk drawing using Photoshop. Much easier way of doing it Actually, I just thought that it looked like it should be a piece of artwork. The colours were so lovely and the bird was so clear.

    The second one of the doves on top of the streetlamp was photoshopped because it was no use otherwise - I love photoshop for that reason - rather than losing what could have been a nice picture you can process it and make use of the fuzziness/darkness and make a great picture. In this case the sun was in the wrong position, and I couldn't move because a) the holly was in the way and b) you know how flighty doves are. I did try but they flew off. I have a wedding picture of the bride going down the isle - it was too dark and too shaky but once I gave it a treatment it became one of my favourite piccies! Waste not, want not

    ...neither do I ! But I just try stuff and find out what it does then. Also, my other half got me some extra filters for it (60 or 70) so although I worked out the sort of effects I could get for the initial ones, there's no way that I can remember that many, so I don't use it to its full extent

    Take a photo of a seagull in a blue sky o any thing with a blue back ground. OK then go to Filters and drop down the menu to Glowing Edges and you will get a result like this.
