Tulip

This is an "enhanced" photo of another Tulip in our front yard earlier this spring.  This photo I like.  I think the light is better on this one and doesn't make the red color "runny" and pinkish looking.

Fix It Friday #1

This is my first Fix It Friday which is hosted by I Heart Faces.   This is the photo that we are using this week.
And this is what I did to the photo.

1. I cropped all the other "stuff" out of the photo so that I just had  "little man" to work with.

2. Then I used the antiqued feature in my program (Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006 Editor).

3. And finally I added an opaque chalk filter to the photo.

I hope you enjoy the final outcome as much as I do!

SOOC Tulips versus "enhanced" Tulips

Earlier this spring I was out in my front yard taking pictures of our Tulips....Cause Tulip buds are a pretty good sign that spring is finally on it's way here in the Midwest.  This first photo is the SOOC version.  Personally, I like the originality of the photo.  The red color doesn't look "runny" to me....For some reason my camera goes a little whackadoodle with the color red.  Does this happen to anyone else?

This is the "enhanced" version.  I'm not sure that I like this one.  To me it SCREAMS "enhanced" and the red color looks "runny" to me.  Almost PINKish.

What do you think?  Which one do you like?
