Had not been posting for weeks due to studies commitment and yeah I kinda got lazy on my fingers too... :P I was just about to take a bite off my chinese dumpling this evening, when I chanced upon this photo I shot with my gf at Niagara Falls, Canada last year. Arggh, there was this irritating water spot blur on the photo as my lens was wet from the mist rising from the falls. Suddenly, I thought, why didnt I try to solve this problem earlier on? 
I noticed that the area of blur was only on the tower and I thought maybe I could just copy and paste another tower photo on it to cover the blur? Sound doable... Immediately, I look through my other photos in the album and I got one photo that could save the day. Though, the second photo also have a water spot blur, but the tower was clear and that is enough for me.

Today, I will post a very basic skin softening technique, that can be applied on faces of female subjects to give their skin a more smooth look and a touch of glamorous shine. These kind of softening techniques are widely used in the creative industry where you see models with soft and perfect skins in movie posters, advertisements, etc... For example, I will apply this simple Photoshop technique on the Sony Alpha model below.

I can remember the days when I just got my first digital camera and was so disappointed when most of the shots turned out underexposed! During that time, I do not have much knowledge of photo correction technique in photoshop and I just leave the photos alone and wasted and finally deleted.. If I knew there is such an easy method to correct exposure problems in Photoshop, I would have done all I could to save those photos.

Converting to black and white using Lightness Channel |

There are several techniques in Photoshop that can be used to convert a full colour photograph into black and white. Typically, a Photoshop "newbie" like me in the past will just pull the saturation bar to the minimum to desaturate the colour or choose "Grayscale" in the image mode.. However this kind of conventional method, you tend to lose control over the details and contrast that you wish to preserve in the photo. You will end up with a photo that is flat and "normal".
