Default Some PP Practice on a Geometric shot
When UKGlyn and I went out to Matlock I tried some geometric shots. I also just got the free 30 day trial download of Photoshop Elements 8, and messed around. WDYT?

Paul, nice lines and shapes! Glad to hear you doing some experimenting with the Elements, not that I am a hard core pp user, sometimes it is fun and you can come up with something a little different from the norm. Good work on this one my friend!

Goodmorning Paul. That is very impressive indeed. Isn't it fun playing with PSE. We only have version 5.0 but still are having lots of fun with it. Nature produces the perfect colouring, but I'm sure a little tweaking is allowed now and then lol.

Thanks Duane. Not being all that computer literate, new programs drive me crazy, but I am determined to stick at it. Thanks for taking a look. PAUL

Wow, Paul. Way more than just geometric! I love the contrasting colors, and the contrast between the straight lines and the foliage. Looks like you're having lots of fun!

Thanks Helen. Don't know about fun, it's driving me crazy. I am not all that computer literate. It's all new to me, and learning the Photoshop thing is doing my head in, but I am determined to see it through. Thanks for taking a look and glad you like it. I need your comments. PAUL
