What is Liger's project 365?

Many popular 'Project 365' blogs are photography based. While I am a professional photographer, my studies were in illustration and graphics. So I have decided to not only grow as a photographer, but as an overall artist. So my 'Project 365' will be a piece of art a day. Here you will find, computer graphics, drawings, paintings, sketches, sculpture, photography, sewing, scrap booking, etc. I am doing this to give myself motivation and to become a better well rounded artist.

5/365 - new photo editing skills

     An old friend from Oklahoma gave me a few tips with editing the EYES of my models.  I do not use a flash when I take photos.  Since I have been taking a lot of indoor shots with poor lighting, I needed to figure out a way to make the eyes pop out more.  She told me to look up the BABY POWDER ROOM action by Coffee Shop Photography.  I did, and then at the end of this editing session, I painted a little bit of Blue in the overlay to make the color pop out more.  Here are the steps I took from beginning to end.  the 4th photo is the FINAL RESULT.  Not too shabby.  Thank you Amy Sargeant Photography and Coffee Shop Photography for all the tips!
