Photo I photoshopped

**kitiara** · 4th January 2008, 05:20 PM

Hi all,

Just wanted to share a photo I'm pretty excited about! I just finished framing it and hanging it on my wall behind my computer.

It started out as a photo of a Cardinal in my back yard, but the light was low and I had to kick the ISO up on my camera pretty high, so there was a lot of noise and grain in the photo. It was blah. So I converted it to black and white and then messed around with Photoshop a bit, eventually ending up with the solarize filter, and, voila! Now I love it!

Hanging on my wall:

Thanks

I'm a relative n00b at photo editing, but it's definitely fun to learn!

The photo looks cool, I really like the way it turned out.

Thanks! I like to change up the art/photos I have on my walls. Keeps me from getting bored at looking at the same old stuff all the time

I like 'em both, but prefer the photoshoppy one.
Both would look good framed I think
