I am not normally into altering images - maybe a few basic fixes in iPhoto - but no drastic post processing. Well, that may be about to change ;) I recently found a few free downloads that I like, and one of them is Pixlr. I used it to give this photo a more worn, vintage feel with the "dirt" application! While this stuff is fun and I just love seeing the ways that others use applications to do really cool things, I think that I will ultimately remain more of a purist (even if that makes me more boring in the photography world)!
What downloads or programs do you like to use for image alteration?
Made me smile:)
ReplyDeleteI think it's great fun every now and then to have a bit of a 'play around' with images Lisa, I love what you've done with this one, it gives it a very cool look!
ReplyDeleteI like to use Photoshop. It's difficult to learn (and I have a LONG way to go), but it's like a journey. It does sooo much, it's really amazing. I always admire your photos, and I often think that some of the best photos are those that don't require modification.
ReplyDeleteI thought the guy was butt naked! I really did. Butt naked on a skateboard? I had to stop and take a look-see. I have not used Pixlr but have seen people use it with astonishing results, such as this with your photo. I used Photoshop CS5. That is about to change as the new CS6 is being released soon and I will probably get it. √
