Using Picnik


trees as hdr 


Do you enjoy taking photos but wish you could enhance them just a little bit? Then you would love Picnik. It’s a free download that enables you to transform your pictures into masterpieces. The above picture is one example. Here is the before:

I took this pictures of the trees that used to be outside the window of the old West Branch School. It’s an ok picture but much better when I added snow and effects to it. The program is extremely easy to use and a lot of fun to play with.

Here’s the same picture just lightened up a bit.

I also use a free Photoscape program to create other effects like this sketch of a creek in the Willow Dale cemetery.

Here is the same shot darkened a bit. It is so much fun enhancing pictures. Why don’t you give it a try?
