photoshop

so today in my photoshop class.. i had worked ahead enough to play with some of my own images.. i don't know how i ever thought that i could edit photos before photoshop.. this program is AMAZING.. and i've barely begun to scratch the surface of the things that this program can do..

but anyway.. here are the 2 images i was playing with..

BEFORE:
not a bad shot.. but very dark..

AFTER:

BEFORE:
this is my favorite photo from naomi & paul's first dance.. but even tho' the lighting is really nice how it lands on her face.. the people and the door.. and especially that exit sign.. really bug me being in the background..

AFTER:
granted.. its wayy too much blurr.. but i thought it looked cool :) they definitely look like they're in their own little dream world.. happy as 2 people could possibly be..
