First, an apology to all 365-ers who’ve been looking for ETSOOI-97. Gremlins have been at work again. I posted the start notice at the end of April, but it all disappeared not long after for some unknown reason. This is Take Two, fingers crossed.
Second, a huge thank you to Taffy (@taffy) for hosting ETSOOI-96 and for selecting my entry for one of the six finalists. Second, a big thank you to all who helped my image end up in first place. I look forward to hosting ETSOOI-97!
For the past few months, this challenge has had a theme associated with it. But that was not always the case. I thought ESOOI-96 worked very well without any theme (great idea Taffy @taffy) so ETSOOI-97, beginning on May 7 will again be open to any concept or theme.
To keep the history of this challenge alive, here is some background, as well as suggestions from previous hosts:
ETSOOI is an acronym started by MaryBeth @espyetta. It stands for EDITING THE SORRY-NESS (or whatever you choose to think of for the ‘s’) OUT OF IT which basically means editing your picture in any way you like. This particular editing challenge emphasises playing with processing to create something new out of your original image. This is in contrast to simply using multiple programs to fine tune and tweak your original image to bring out its best result.
If you are new to editing/processing here are some great tools to use besides standard tools in Lightroom and Photoshop:
Snapseed
PicsArt
Pencil Sketch Free
Camera360
Deep Art Effects
You can use more than one program/app per image. This challenge is very relaxed so just give it a "seeing-to" (as Marnie @golftragic would say) with your picture and see what you can create.

That is really weird because I now see both on my feed ... and only noticed it now when I saw both on the SH*T list. I will make note of it on my SH*T list in case anyone gets confused ... like me!!
