the edit:
while many photographers use photoshop as their weapon of choice, i'd like to point out two things. one is some of us have no idea how to understand photoshop it's like driving a rocket instead of a car - too many gadgets. and two, sometimes you don't need photoshop. most of my photos are shot, viewed, and blogged. sometimes i add a fun filter or frame. i don't like changing so much of the photo that i feel as though i didn't take a good photo in the first place. i challenge myself at the shutter and believe me i still have a loooong way to go :)
here are some fun effects in iPhoto and next week we will play with another photo editing app.
first this photo looks crooked so let's straighten it

antique on 1 and fade color 2
go back to original and boost color, hmmm
black and white is fun but not for this pic
