With Jessica Sprague!!
Her wonderful and educational website, http://www.jessicasprague.com, is turning 5, so to celebrate Jessica is teaching a FREE class called The Photoshop Top 5.
Day One was a Welcome to Photoshop and a tutorial on how to edit a picture.
Now as simple as this sounds, I am extremely intimidated by all the options, buttons, parts and pieces that make up Photoshop Elements. So, I tend to stick with the Auto Correct feature that comes with the basic photo gallery on my computer. Silly, I know.
Here is my original picture~
Jessica walked us through how to correct skin tones, contrasts, using the screen and soft light features and then we turned our photos into black and whites or more accurately a sepia tone. She even showed us how to sharpen those images.
My finished product~
Today’s lesson will be making a digital scrapbooking page using our picture. I can’t wait!!
Did I mention she showed how to save an image in a web size? This means I won’t have to use Photobucket to resize and load pictures on certain Message Boards. Woo Hoo!!
I have to say that I just LOVE her teaching style. She just makes it so easy to follow along.
I wonder if she could help me figure out how to program the auto windshield wipers in my car?
Or how to get my iPod off of the shuffle mode?
I learned a ton yesterday too! And the web size – had no idea about that – hurray.
Your photo of Hartly is wonderful!
