DOCUMENT WITH DEB
Hi Everyone.
Welcome to DWD Wk05/52.
This week I am looking at backgrounds, and how you can improve the backgrounds in your photos both when composing your shots, or when editing your photos.
Here is my sample photo SOOC (straight out of camera)
Here it is after editing and adding in my text title.
And here it is with an exaggerated Gaussian Blur Filter effect - just to show you an how it is effective in diminishing a background.
You can find out how achieve the same results here.
Cheers,
Deb
SCRAPZ.AMOUR starts on February 3!
