Brenda Photo Challenge


The new theme is to take an existing photo and change it through photo editing software. Try to make it different, better, more focused, a different color… whatever you choose to do, be creative and have fun. You will need to post the before and after.


This is my friend Peggy. I took this the other night, right before our weekly card game.

SOOC


First I cropped it and made it Black and White, which I love.
I thought it looked good.
Then I softened it, I really like it, now.

  2. Great cropping job and choice of black and white with softening! So many people forget that they can crop for a better composition.

    Your friend is a lovely lady!

  9. um, I don't like to be the odd one out, but I love the first photo! It is just me I guess.
    I really don't ever feel the need to use an editor...(haven't really got time)...apart form occasionally cropping...and even then it doesn't happen very often...prefer to take the photo as is!

    But you have done well! Good on you Jan for learning all about it!
