Having Fun



I'm not sure what is more fun -- actually taking photos or playing with them in Photoshop... For a frustrated artist who needs instant gratification, Photoshop is like a giant candy shop. :)

Textures used here by Florabella and Joy St. Claire.

You are so right! It's like a gigantic candy shop. And much less fattening, except for all the time spent sitting on the arse!

Oh I know...it's so hard to choose - taking the pictures or playing with them in PS (PSE)!

I love the way the texture has added the hint of writing to the photo!! Makes you look longer, trying to see what is written!

your pictures are lovely...always! i don't get photoshop because i don't know how to use it. so i am always happier behind the lenses of my camera!

Thanks, all. :)

Journeying Five -- It has taken me a few years to learn how to do a few things in Photoshop... I'm sure I've only scratched the surface, and I'm still learning, but it is so much fun! :)
