First, I bought a new lens for my camera. It's a 55-200mm Nikon zoom lens with VR (Vibration reduction). It's supposed to be REALLY neat. It doesn't get here til Wednesday, but I'll let you know how it goes!
Second, I bought a photo editing program. Not Photoshop CS2 or whatever it is. That puppy costs about $600!! No, I got Photoshop Elements 6.0. And this morning I had a bit of fun with it.
You know how when you get pictures done somewhere and they are always doing some fun things to make you want to spend an arm and a leg? Like selective coloring, when you can pick one color or something to stand out in a black and white photo? Well, here are my attempts at it:
What do you think? I wouldn't do it all the time, but I think it's kinda cool for the right photo.

Jenny,
I LOVE the photoshop colorized pictures. Really cool!!!
You're a heckuva lot further along in P-Shop than I am, Girl! "Elements" came bundled with my scanner and I've yet to play with it to any extent. But I think I'll try out this single-color thingie. Your results are MOST impressive!
Buck: It took me a few days to figure out how to do the single color thingie, there is no special button. I created a layer and turned it black and white. Then on that layer I traced and cut out what I wanted colorized. Then the layer below it showed the color. Clear as mud? LOL!
