Yes It Arrived

New stuff, and here is what I have done with it so far. This picture was taken indoors, yesterday on the 19th at 4:22 pm. We had some sunshine yesterday, and getting more nice days. On Monday I finally got my new paint/photo programs, and have been playing with and learning some of its abilities. My own learning process is going to be a little bit slow since it has been so long since I have played with real photo editing software. So enough of that. Here is the original shot from yesterday, the only editing done on it was resizing so it would not use up to much bandwidth.

We had some sun shining in the window, and the only real green is the house plants my wife has, so snip-id-d-snip I snapped a couple pictures to play with. For a no flash picture just so so. It did not however really show the sunshine and the color, I wanted more out of the picture. We all, or so it seems, want more out of everything. I could have settled for that picture and 10 years down the road I would remember what a nice plant that was, but would I remember the day, the sun the drive and new toys? Not likely after all it is just a so-so everyday snap, and there is nothing wrong with that, I love everyday snaps.

So enough of that, you want to see what the results of the edits were, nothing super drastic, just some tweaks here and a few clips there, and here we have the finished product.

It is the same picture only cropped, and like I mentioned a few tweaks here and there. I like it, but then again if I did not like it I would not have posted it. Well step one in the learning process complete, exposure fixing and smart edit picking, and then the hard part, what part to show.
