Paducah, Kentucky


BEFORE

I loved the visit to Paducah, Kentucky.  I stayed at a friend’s property and there was a man-made pond.  I loved this place because it was so green and peaceful.




















AFTER

I used onone software effects of color fill and cropped the photograph.  In Photoshop I enhanced the sky and brought out the color in the pond.  I applied curves and hue and saturation to augment the colors in this photograph.

St. Patty's Day with kids!!!



St. Patty Day fun with the kids!



BEFORE
She is so adorable grabbing for items from the Pot of Gold PiƱata, but something needed to be changed.





















AFTER
I made sure to make her the focus instead of someone’s skirt and I did crop and used the burn tool to bring out the girl’s face since she was in the shade.

The Red Barn


BEFORE

This red barn was taken on a back road of Padacuh, Kentucky.  It was great to be in the country and capture the red barn.



















AFTER

I used the content aware tool to remove the electric pole and lines in the background on the left side of the photograph and remove electric wiring on the barn and going through the trees.

The Pups





This is the second entry for my Photoshop Blog from Terry Times (Theresa Leonard).

This is the before photo of Mikey.


BEFORE
















The editing I did on this photograph was that I cropped the scene and did some exposure adjustment with the gamma option and I did some dodging around the blanket to brighten it up.
