My GPS Camera Phone

What we’ve got here is…a bunch of clouds! Yes, no fooling around this week. However, it is two cloud photos merged together with hue and saturation adjusted to make it more blue. Other than that, it’s nothing much really.

Just when you thought it was safe to guess correctly, I pull fast one. Actually, I had no idea that some of you would think I was trying to fool you with this photo. However, Dan’s second guess of waves breaking was correct as well because my initial intent was to do that, but it turned out to be a big blue mush instead.

So technically, Dan is correct twice.

As a result of his dual correctness, I feel obliged to offer him something more than a link. So here’s something better: two links. So please stop by dcrblogs.com and gain some wisdom on making your blog better. Here’s two recent posts I like:

Money for (Almost) Nothing
Mindful Monday: The Value of eBooks

Congrats, Dan.

Now that leaves me with the problem of everyone else. Since I suck this week, you all win, but everyone pretty much guessed the right thing anyway. So, in no particular order:

smarmoofus, dcr, CatSynth, Raven, Pamela, Jan, Rizza, Francine, Kelly, Michelle Gartner, Vixen, Chica and Bill (not Jill).

Thanks for commenting everyone! See you next week!

About a month ago, I discussed a the possibility of bunch of new things coming to My GPS Camera Phone. Today, I am happy to present one of those big additions – video tutorials on photo editing.

Being a visual person, I find it difficult to learn about graphics software by just looking at a user guide or a text tutorial. While there are many good tutorials out there, I haven’t seen many video-based ones. In an attempt to fill that void and to bring the mysteries of photo editing to the “regular guy/girl,” I’ll be creating and offering these short tutorials.

Each video will only run around three minutes, so watching them won’t require a huge block of time. I’m hoping to pass on helpful photo editing tips and software use methods so anyone can understand them. While you can’t make a bad picture good, you can make a good picture better. I hope to be able to show you how.

On to the tutorial!
