Photo Editing in Different Apps
Anyone who has dabbled in photography even a little knows that it's nearly impossible to take the perfect photo while out and about with your camera. Never fear, however, for with today's technology, you can take a dark imperfect photo and work a little editing magic to make it a photo you love showing off. Today, I'm going to show you my different ways of editing a photo that I primarily use. For both examples, I'll be using the photo from above. This photo was taken during the summer of 2020 at the Badlands National Park. I shot this photo on my Canon EOS REBEL T5i. As you can see, it's a bit dark, and not necessarily the most pleasing to look at. A lot of the details are lost.

My Photo Editing Process
Introduction When I was emailed about a new VOCAL.MEDIA challenge to explain 'your photo-editing processes', I knew I'd be spending hours on this submission. LOL. It's all good. To be more honest, I was also thinking to myself: 'This is going to be a long day'. It's not that my process is difficult. The problem I have with creating things is that I tend to GO AN EXTRA MILE. And; to be honest, I've been editing photos and 'beautifying' EBOOK cover-arts for a VERY LONG TIME. It's almost unfair to expect the average person to do what I do and have access to the programs and experience that I have.

How I Took This Photo
Whelp! Look at where I have ended up. One day I fancy myself a book reader, the next a writer, and today? Today, apparently, I’m a 'professional' photographer. What a time to be alive! Thanks to a Vocal challenge, a lazy Sunday afternoon, and a spark on inspiration, I have found myself just slightly outside my comfort zone.

For the Fun of It
Digital photography has been both blessing and curse for amateur photographers. It makes excellent photography truly accessible to the masses. But the seemingly endless array of cameras, lenses, gadgets, options, editing programs, and good advice can be intimidating. Even worse, with 7.6 billion people on the planet there are so many gifted professional photographers and so much truly wonderful photography in every media outlet it's hard not to feel discouraged before you begin.

The Wow Factor - Mastering the Art of Picture Edits on Your Phone
For as long as I can remember taking pictures has been my joyful hobby. At one point in my life, I even considered becoming a professional photographer. I chose a different path, but photography remains a very significant part of my life.

Photo Finish
Above is an unedited photo I captured with my phone this past Thanksgiving. The day had been primarily overcast and drizzly, but my niece’s horses were kind enough to strike a pose just as the clouds broke and the sun’s beams slanted through the trees. The resultant picture came out underexposed and drabber than desired; it would take my access to and working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop to combat the deficiencies in my phone’s less-than-stellar camera. The following brief tutorial will outline the steps taken to better bring out this scene’s natural beauty.

Finding My Artistic Me
I recently attended a conference for professional photographers put on by the Professional Photographers of America. A message kept resonating through the hours of video conferences that I watched that weekend--be different. In a marketplace full of the same, different makes you stand out, and makes you be able to live the life of a successful artist. In other words, create, create, and be YOU!

Marking Moments: Photo Collage
I am someone who really enjoys photography and editing as a way of marking memorable moments. I am not by any means a professional, but I like to snap a photo of a beautiful sunrise or my friends laughing or a good plate of food. When it comes to editing, one of my favorite things to do is compile a collage of pictures that I took over the course of a month, a week, or even just a day, to mark special memories.

Digital Manipulation 101: How to Edit Photos with GIMP
Photo editing and digital manipulation. I've been playing with them for over twenty years now. To be clear, I am not claiming expertise - like I said, I've been playing with editing photos on computers. Anything I've learned about the process has come from opening a digital manipulation program, opening a file within that program, and clicking around. And I have learned a few useful things.

Snapseed
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE? What isn't wrong with this picture? If you can't tell, it is a hand forged copper cuff, attempting to look cute enough for a customer to buy if they see it on my website, or even more important, for a jury to allow into a coveted art fair. This picture not only won't take the cake, it doesn't know what cake is. Snapseed can help.
