Photo editing

I love pictures. I loveto take them but I also love to browse pictures...mine and others'. One thing I have been having fun with lately is editing photos to see what I can come up with. My camera skills aren't the greatest so editing makes me happier with my pictures. I don't do it very often but when I do, I really enjoy myself. Recently, someone showed me an editing program and I am in love. It's simple and can really make a difference in the end product. It's pixlr.com/o-matic/ It's free!



Here's a pic I took back in 2001-2002 with a simple point and shoot camera that my parents gave me for Christmas one year. It was color but back when I had photshop, I changed it to sepia. I was really happy with that simple change, and still like it better than the original.




But then, I put it through some proccessing in my fancy new editing program and made just two changes. It came out looking like this. I am super happy with this image. I am trying to figure out where I can hang this in the house now.




I like how it looks kind of like a watercolor and a picture at the same time. It has a modern art touch to it but not blaringly so. I love the colors. Editing is amazing and a lot of fun.
