Wordless Wednesday: Too Cool for School

by Dawn on October 7, 2008

in Wordless Wednesday, family & friends, featured, photography & design

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.

Awesome photo, and I think the background really makes it seem cool and otherworldly.

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.

That’s very cool! Great picture! Love the way you jazzed it up with the yellow. Much better than the garage…. Enjoy your day!

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?

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!
