Default What Would You Do (#41)
Ok, a few days late... but here it is. This week's WWYD is from Teewinot, one of our constant contributors.

El Morro, San Juan, Puerto Rico

Available larger

The rules are simple. Use the picture, edit it however you want, come back and post your picture and explain to us what you did so that we can learn from it. Easy, right?

If you want your picture used for one of these threads, just drop me a PM with a link to the medium and large size of the image. I use them in the order I receive them, so fear not, if you don't see your image right away, it will be used. Now, let's see what you would do!

Would have liked to have done something but can't open it.

I'm seeing both links... Are you having any other problems with Flickr? You can check on this page. Hopefully it's a temporary thing for you moi.

All green ticks from Flickr.
Saves as a GIF file from the smaller shot and my laptop won't 'display' the picture. Won't save from the larger picture at all. Never mind. I'll try another one, later. Thanks.

Moi, I don't allow my 'all sizes' button on Flickr to be seen by anyone, so that's why Nicole included a link to the larger image from a different source. I hope you can get it to work!

Default Basic Edit
Many thanks to Nicole for emailing me the picture.
I'm a complete beginner to post and only have access to BASIC Flickr edit facility. (WHen FLickr works out how to process my 'very foreign' credit card I should have access to Pro!)

dps3

So-I cropped out the 'bald/dry' grass and some of the crenellated wall, people on the left and rubbish bins.
Sharpened what was left.
Increased clolour saturation.
'Softened' the outside edge of the cropped picture.
Kept the shadows of the people.

A 'simple' effort and am looking forward to seeing what the 'pros' can show me-the shape of things to come!
