in #minichallenge4 years ago

Picture editing can make even the most ordinary pictures look extraordinary.
Okay, so yesterday (28/072020) was my birthday and was thinking what should I do or which picture should I post on my social medias platform.
so i had this picture in mind:

After playing around with my photo editing software, i finally came out with this.

I used the magnetic lasso tool to select my self from the picture.
about the background, i downloaded from pexels.com(free photo). Originally, the background had some text on it

In other for me to remove the background, i had to make use of the brush tool to clean all unwanted text

Is Photoshop easy to learn?

i have always love to design things my own way and this was one of the things that gave my the push to go ahead.
oh yes, its easy. i wash tutorials on YouTube over and over to be able to come out with this

Photoshop is not always the most user friendly of programs. Sometimes it has frustrating issues, and the solution is not always clear

Problems


when you are Uncertain what you’ve done, all your panels have vanished from your screen.
