Photoshop Practice

I am very much a Photoshop novice. I've done a few photo birthday invitations, some cropping, and taken out a few red eyes. Other than that, I have no idea what I'm doing. Right now, I'm using Photoshop Elements.

I played around with it last weekend to lighten up a couple pictures. Unfortunately I didn't get good light on her face, so that's my main problem. But I think the pictures do look a little better than before. Since these pics I've started taking pics RAW, so hopefully I'll be able to do a little better editing.

I bet there's an extended education course I could take for Photoshop. Maybe I'll check in to that (you know, in my free time)!

By the way, I've changed my comments section to "Anonymous" so if you do not have a blogger account, you can still leave a comment. Just let me know who you are :)

    Did you know iVillage has a photography board?

    One of the girls there actually also started a Photoshop board:

    And ... if you haven't yet, some people like pioneerwoman.com for photography tutorials.

    yeah I can comment! Love your blog and all the pics of your beautiful kids. I really need to start learning to get out of auto mode myself. You're motivating me to try!
