I loved this picture, taken by my 17-year-old son. The background, however, was a mess: two cars, a basketball goal, and the garage. I thought it was worth salvaging and having a little fun in the process.

Now that is a great use of photo editing software!!! You’ve done a great job! I’m still learning, and you’ve totally inspired me. The expression on his face is just hilarious.

Fun cut out. I agree it’s an awesome picture. Looks like it should be on the cover of some metal band album.

Wow! Great picture. Do we have another up-in-coming photographer in the family? All he need is a little guidance from his Photoshop Expert…right?
October 8th, 2008 at 8:56 pm
GREAT save, Dawn. Oooh, how I wish you lived nearby so you could just mentor me in all things Photoshop….I don’t do that great of a job of figuring stuff out on my own.
He’s a cutie!
