Adventures in Picture Editing...

Since this winter has been so dreary, dark and cloudy, all of the pictures I have taken have been unacceptably dark- like in this post…

I really wanted to figure out how to edit them… but I got pretty fed up with Photoshop Elements {its photoshop, but cheap.} and was totally clueless as to how to use it to do what I wanted… I even asked my friend to help me out. {her dad is a photoshop pro…} It helped a little bit, but it took forever to get a picture the way I wanted.

Then read a post about someone editing pictures with Picasa… {I’d give credit but I cant remember who… sorry!} I remembered that a few weeks ago I had downloaded Picasa on a whim. For some reason, I thought it was just some organizer thingy for pictures. It isn’t.

Let me just say that I all my editable pictures are now edited. And I did them all {like maybe 25 of them} in a half hour. {cool, huh?}

Here are some examples… {and I’m scheduling more posts, Lordwilling for the next couple weeks with more!}

I guess I didn’t save the original, but it was similar quality to this one…

 

*P.S. Did you know I really like red barns for some odd reason?
