Sunday Stills....Photoshop

This weeks challenge is Photoshop...I have PSElements but haven't figured out much of it yet.  I generally use Picnik to edit photos. Easy Peasy.  And I love to do it. It's amazing what you can create.  I would love to have posted what I did on each picture but to be honest I was hitting buttons and not really paying attention...I guess I need to fix that huh?




Here's my drive home. I tried to make it feel like a pic
from the Seventies, kinda old looking.

These are excellent although I wouldn't want to run into the kid at the bottom on a dark night.

Great selection..I enjoyed all of it. The road and the effect of the rose is cool. Your son was cute. I was tempted to do an off the wall one of me (it looked really unflatering but hilarious)..I probably would of been ignored too..ha Have a great day-

Wow Loved the first edit. The ones of your son are very neat. And although I'm not a huge Halloween fan, I can still appreciate a costume.
