K, so enough intense emotions and love-sickness....back to the pictures.
I've decided to hire a photographer to pretty much take me under his wing and teach me the trick of the trade. Until we start our classes, however, I've been youtubing photoshop tips alot...there's SO much you can learn from youtube!
I drug out my hard drive and started rummaging through old pictures that I wanted to do something with, but never did...and I found some that I took at Christmas while home with my family. My heart got stuck when I saw this one of my dad sitting in the "Game Room" at our family home in Texas...its just so "authentically" him...
So I pulled him into Photoshop for some color re-working and I found this "distort" tool that is called "diffuse glow". I like diffusing things...and we all love things that glow, so I applied it to this picture and I love it!
This one's for you, Daddy!
(Did I mention being homesick?)
