Fresh and Colorful

The world is so full of wonderful opportunities to do really exciting things. Several nights ago I received a very excited late night call from Stephanie. She had found an incredible website created by a very talented lady, The Pioneer Woman, who is/was offering free Photoshop actions. Of course Stephanie doesn't just give a gift and then leave it alone. She took it one step further and challenged me to do something with this gift.

Note: I went to Jennifer's blog and saw all her great pictures. When I talked with her she added her encouragement to Stephanie's challenge. That was the last straw. I had to give it a try.

Here is my first attempt . The picture on the left is the original. The picture on the right has been changed by the Fresh and Colorful Action. Can you see any difference?

Wow! That is truly amazing how much lighter it is on Emmuska's face so you can see her expression better (and let's face it- Emmuska's expressions are generally priceless!) I like this!

I think that that looks amazing! It is amazing what just one small thing can do. Plus, I love that picture, you should definately enlarge it and put it on your wall. I am so glad you took up stephanies offer!

I love how golden it makes her hair look. And like Bonnie said being able to better see Emmuska's expression really enhances this shot as well. I can't wait to see what you to do to other photos. (wink wink) I hope you had as much fun playing as I did.
