I wow! I've fine all gooey over this one! Absolutely divine. Beautiful softness. I would love some advice on editing programmes, not sure which to have a go with ??? All new ground for me now with this different camera :)
@jacjacs68 Thank you so much Jackie for all the great comments and favs, you´re so sweet my friend!
I use mostly Paint.net and Picasa, both are pretty easy to use and freely downloadable from the internet. I also have GIMP but that´s more diffucult to use but on the otherhand it has almost all the same abilities than PS but it´s free (downloadable from the internet). Also there´s this super easy free online editing program that I use pretty much for toning : http://pixlr.com/o-matic/ it´s very easy to use. There are also plenty of tutorials for both GIMP and Paint.net at youtube. I started with Paint.net and that´s what I´d recommend and then upgrade to GIMP when you get your basics learned. With Paint.net you can do all the basic stuff but for masks ( as what you´ll nees for serious photo manipulation) you´ll need GIMP.
Picasa and pixl are both something you can use too side by the Paint.net. This pic is for instance processed in Picasa; I softened it a bit and then turned it in sepia. Also check the zooming tool in Picasa, that´s great fun to play with. I hope this helped :)
@susale Sounds brilliant. Been waiting to have a go at the zooming for a while!! Well that's my day sorted then lol Thankyou so much myfriend, I need all the help I can get I think lol :) A massive help! thanks again :)
