Just playing around with more photos. With this photo, all I did was desaturate the photo. Here's is a quick tutorial:
Click on "Layer" at the menu
Click on "New Adjust Layer"
Click on "Hue/Saturation"
Click on the saturation bar and moved it to the left to reduce the amount of color to the photo.
My daughter and I went to the park earlier today and I took a few photos of her. Just playing around with my camera. I used a 28 - 70mm lense for these pictures. No major photoshop was done on these photos except to desaturate or lighten/darken pictures that I thought were a bit too light or dark. I took all of the photos in auto focus and portrait setting. My daughter don't wear make-up but she still looks so pretty!! Still trying to learn more about my Canon Rebel features.
I think I'm going to play with Photoshop and edit a few of these photos. I'll repost a few of them with a before and after photos in a future posting.
I took this photo with the "portrait" setting but although it suppose to be for headshot photos, I don't like the faded look to it. This setting suppose to result in a better skin tone color. I think it looks faded and the colors are not very vibrant. I think I'll play with Photoshop with this image!
This photo was taken with my wide angle 18 - 55mm lense. This is how it actually looks.
A bunch of photos I took of flowers in my yard. The super close up photos were taken with a 58mm macro lense attached to a 18mm - 55mm lense and 3x close up lense. They were taken in Program AE setting. The regular shots were taken with my 18 - 55mm lense on auto focus macro setting.
