The Photoshop CS book

Determined to learn to use my nice camera, I headed to the local library. I found the coolest book, "The Photoshop CS Book" by Scott Kelby. It's completely user friendly & teaches the best Photoshop tricks & shortcuts. I love it so much I bought it. I don't buy many books because I usually only read a book one and libraries are great for one time reads. I didn't learn much about taking better photos, but I did learn how to fix them.

So, I've been messing with myself. I cropped the photo, adjusted shadows, highlights & midtones, fixed my blotchy skin, erased my wrinkles (ug), whitened my teeth, brightened my eyes, erased white flecks off my shirt, softened the entire photo, & sharpened it.

It's so fun I don't want to go to bed, but I know someone little will be waking me up for a midnight snack all too soon. So, goodnight.
