So, at the request of Connie Benson I’ve been trying out the photo editing facilities inherent within ACDSee Pro2.
I’ve mentioned before how I had been impressed by the way it ’saved’ a photo of my youngest stepdaughter.
Here’s some examples of how it can take an average shot and make it that bit more special*… click on the images to see them full size

* your interpretation of what is ’special’ and what is ‘cr*p’ is entirely yours
Yes, I love my polarising filter
All shots taken on an ancient Pentax ProgramA, boat and house photos with a 24mm wide angle, the beach grass and dying trees with a 70-150mm zoom, on Fuji 400 Superia X-tra set to 800 ASA.

Thanks for exploring the creative aspects of Pro 2, Lee! Isn’t the scattered tiles effect cool?!
And I think your interpretations are great. Do what makes you happy.
I look forward to seeing more of your work!
