Layers upon Layers

Now I know that i didnt take this picture being that it is a picture of me but it was on my flash stick and i wanted to do some playing photoshop and i must say that i had lots of fun. And would you believe i ended up with more that 3 or so layers. There is a layer for the blur, black and white, colour show through, curves adjustment and a couple others that i have forgotten. Im really excited that i was able to do something a little differente and that i have taught myself a few things. Please let me know what your thoughts are. (about the photoshop not the picture iteself)

Hill Wedding Part 1

This is some of the pictures of the girls getting ready that i took. This was the first time that i was with the girls all by myself for most of the time so i had to try and be very creative. It was lots of fun for me considering that it was my cousing getting married so it was real special.

You may notice that once i learn something new that i seem to use it a lot. That is because i think its cool and its like having a new toy to use.

I learned something new in Photoshop

This is really exciting because i taught myself something new in photoshop whilst playing with the pictures i took at my cousins wedding at the beginning of thsi year.

For those interested, In this image i wanted to blur around the subject inorder to draw your attention to her face. (and away from my not so good composition) So what i did was i added a duplicate layer of the background and put a blur on that. then i used the history brush to show through the background layer on the area that i wanted clear. then there is a vignetter on top of that.

Ive probably dont it different to the usual or wrong or something but it did what i wanted to do and im really proud of myself so in the end i dont really care if tis wrong. I think shes beautiful.

Ash & Kates Wedding

So I have finally learned a few things in photoshop but it means that all my pictures will look fairly similar and possibly not very good. But anyway feel free to let me know what you think.

Again all the below pictures were taken by me and photoshoped by me so nothing belongs to kent (except that he taught me everything i know).
