GIMP
April 18, 2008
I've recently discovered ThePioneerWoman.com blog which is simply way over the top in terms of eye candy and overall quality, though I disdain the ads. I'm not sure why I keep going back since it gives me an inferiority complex every time. But... I can't help myself because the photos are amazing. In response to all my ohs, ahs, sighs and "I wish I could that" comments, Damien's installed GIMP, free image editing software, on my computer. I've started to play around with it and have no idea what I'm doing but after fooling around wasting time for a couple hours tonight I did come up with this, which quite frankly isn't that different from the original but I had to post something for all my effort.

what a perfect scientist shot! I think it looks great, too, in terms of processing. Nice and crisp and poppy.

I use Gimp quite a lot, but mostly for altered photographs. The cartoon feature can turn a bad photo into something nice for a card or an illustration. It took me a while to get the hang of it, so don't get discouraged. This is a bright shot.
