Occasionally I take my camera settings off 'Auto' and try to get a little fancy with the settings. I usually like to play around with the different lighting settings...but the only problem is that I frequently forget to reset them...and then I end up with a picture like this:
This is my cousin's adorable son, Blake, and I totally ruined the picture by having my camera on the wrong settings. Actually, half of my 4th of July pictures came out with this horrible blue cast over them, and I was SO mad at myself when I uploaded them to my computer...I guess I wasn't paying attention as I was snapping away. I tried quickly color-correcting them with my standard photo editor, but they were all still completely washed out.
Enter Photoshop... After a few simple steps, the image improved drastically! However, the green grass still seems really washed out and his skin tone doesn't look quite right.
A few more steps...and voila! Total, undeniable, 1-year old cuteness!!!
I still wouldn't say it's perfect...but it's SO much better than what I had before. Now, off I go to fix the rest of my July 4th pics...maybe then I'll actually get around to posting them on the blog!
