Fun with Photoshop – a few examples

Photoshop gives you the power to do things to photos that can make anyone with with a sense of taste beyond the one found in their mouth cringe. This do-everything monster does have a bit of a learning curve (which sometimes feels more like a WALL as you struggle through it…).  But once you get over the frustrations, it’s well worth the climb (see link below).

I started with GIMP several years ago, switched to Photoshop about 12 months ago when I got serious about doing professional photography again, and by last fall I finally had a general understanding of what I was doing.

I put together a page of before/after images to share with friends. My intent was showing what could be done by an apprentice-level Photoshop user. These images are a bit more, um, “creative” (aggressive? egregious?) than my routine Photoshop work, but they demonstrate some of the cool “stuff” that you can make happen in a photo using digital manipulation — without too much expertise.

You can view the samples by going HERE – B4nDaftr – Photoshop Fun>. (It opens in a new tab, so you can just close it when finished.)

Comments? Suggestions? I’d love to hear from you, either by email, or in comments here on the blog.

Best,
Art
