Day Ten (May 18th): Murano by Night

Carm gave me a challenge to take a picture with a flashlight as my only light source. When I thought of the challenge, I thought of my Murano glass vase, my favorite souvenir from Venice, and how pretty it would look with a flashlight shining through it. The reflection of the pattern on the wall was a special surprise. I played with it a little in Photoshop to make the background darker. My husband is trying to teach me the program but I'm a slow learner.

  1. I was like ooh, Janelle is getting fancy, and then saw it was my challenge! Go YOU! That's a great picture. I hate photoshop, I mean I love it, but it's so hard to use.

  2. I like having a challenge. It made me think outside the box. John tried to teach me but I can't remember anything he told me. I think I'll try Corel.

  3. Do you guys have a mac? I guess not if you can use Corel. But maybe like iTunes, iPhoto can be used on PC. I mostly use iPhoto these days, it's easier to see how things are going. It's just more intuitive.
