Before and After

I am really loving Monica's Before and After Blog Hop!  It is so neat to see how everyone edits their photos.  Everyone has such different styles of editing which gives me great new ideas to try on my own photos!  

I stepped away from what I have done in the past two weeks,  I tried not to do the bright, saturated photos and went for a softer but still colorful look.  Maybe next week I will try a texture.  That would be fun!

S.O.O.C. (before)


I loved Wes' expression but did not know how to make it special.  This was taken with my 18-55 kit lens at 40mm and an ISO of 200, 1/320 sec at f/ 5.3.

After- Edited in Lightroom 2.6


I downloaded a preset from either Preset Heaven of Adobe called " PH Surreal Momment"  and applied it then, adjusted the tint, temperature, blacks, recovery and clarity.  

Can't wait to see what everyone else did this week!

I love that shot....cool edit..different from what I saw last night. Either that or I didn't see it good from the angle I was looking at your computer screen. :)

It's the same as last night. Maybe it's too bright?
