Photography and Homeschooling (Roadschooling as often as we can)
Charleston has lots of little hidden streets and places to discover.
There were so many signs in the original! They do NOT want you parking on this street, understandably. I cropped in to get rid of the window a/c units and cropped out at least five signs.

Quick question: When you view my posts in the WordPress reader, do you see the final, edited pic, or do you see the original picture?
When I look at the reader on my laptop, I see the edited picture. When I’m on my phone, I see the original.

Charleston is a favorite. The food. The people. The history.
And the architecture.
Most people take pictures of the Rainbow Row houses. I did too, but in the middle of the day with bright sunlight and multiple work trucks in view, it wasn’t the best shot. Neither was this one at first.
The original was dull, and it had distracting people in it. I cloned those and did some simple editing to make a stronger statement.

Revisiting Biltmore, and its reflection, today.
The original was very dull. I did lots of little edits to this one.

We visited the Yosemite and Sequoia areas last April. Snow!
This path seems pretty magical – looks like winter though!
The original was pretty dull!

A fun one for today. Why did I take a picture of a spill? I knew there’d be some awesome colors if I edited it. That is the only reason.
It’s interesting how the colors repeat in the same order. Anyone know why? (I don’t know)
The original was so dull, but I knew there was some color hiding in there.

These girls.
God’s blessings poured into beings that sometimes look like me, sometimes act like me (for better or worse), and always amaze me with their wit, wisdom, and compassion.
And most of the time they like each other.
I purposely shot into the sun to create the flare and haze. The original was dull and flat though. I did various edits: sharpened them, softened the background, brought out the saturation, healed a blemish on a cheek.
Happy Day to all you siblings out there!
