How about a tutorial showing us how to edit out blemishes from the skin, or that goldfish crumb on my daughter's face, or heaven forbid, that booger in the nose that ruins a perfectly good shot. Or how to edit out that car that drove into your shot right at you took it, etc. I know there are ways to do that, but I'm completely lost about it.

I have photoshop elements, and use it, but I never really knew how to do anything to make my pictures really pop. I didn't even know there were such things as actions! <br /><br />For future tutorials, I would love to learn how to make the background of a pic look blurry, while the subject of the picture is in focus. I love how most expensive cameras can do this right away, but unfortunately I can only afford a point and shoot, so I'd love to learn any tricks to making my photos look professional with the items I already have.

Do you think using the screen mode produces better results, say than using levels adjustment layer and masking out what didn't need to be brightened? Or just as effective, yet another way to lighten skin?<br /><br />I have been loving levels lately, since I can't seem to get a handle on using curves. I have a plug in for PSE, but it just confuses me. Not hard to do, actually.Staci Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11890892690515257433noreply@blogger.com
