shallow

Playing with Photoshop Elements some more..... I admit it, I'm shallow, it's easy to attract my attention. I like just about anything better if it's orange.....

Here is the original. Pretty boring.























Let's start by squaring up the house boards.

Now let's bump the contrast. Well, that's a bit better. What happens if we bump up the yellow? A lot, like 100%.....

Ooooh, orange! Gotta love that.

(ed. note: the Chief Housepainter is appalled at the notion of an orange house, but I rather like the idea.....)





















And now to sharpen it up with some poster edges........ Better. The flowers are too blown out to sharpen. Their whiteness is just going to have to carry them.






















Let's straighten out those stems. Hmmm. I think I prefer that.....

I like this a lot better than the original, but then orange and chartreuse are bound to please me. Isn't it cool to be able to do all this?????
