Here is the new challenge to practice basic processing skills for your digital photos. A photo is provided and you will use a total of five processing steps (i.e. crop, contrast, saturation, clone, etc.) to put your own touch on it. Please list the editing steps you used. A group of winners will be selected Wednesday, June 13th and submitted for voting. The winner will host the next challenge.
To copy the photo for your own use: right click on photo, choose "save photo as" & save to my computer -- then edit and upload it as a daily photo in your project.
I decided to go Indiana Jones-ish with this edit. All in PicMonkey:
1. crop
2. dodge bottom left corner
3. desaturate
4. gritty effect
5. cinerama effect
@la_photographic - From what I understand, you don't have to take all 5 steps, but you can't take more than that. And yep, you have until June 13th to submit your creation!
@swguevin - Icy :). Don't forget to post the 5 editing steps you took as well!
