| This is the original picture of Precious and myself. All that was done was a resizing of the picture to make it more "web friendly". Click on the picture to view it as it originally scanned in. It's BIG!

The only thing that was done to this picture was a brightening of the reins. In the original, you couldn't see them well, and I wanted them to be more obvious, as it shows (to me anyway) how resposive she is. I rode her with reins that loose almost all the time, unless she was panicking about something, then I shortened them a little. (If you want me to "brag her up" some more, just ask! *BG* Her full brother is still for sale.... *BEG*)

All that was done to this one was a bit of cropping to get rid of extra background. Nothing special. :)

This has the "frosted glass" look to it, but instead of only being 55% opaque, I made the white part 100% opaque. There is a huge variety of way to do this, and you don't have to use white all the time either. ;) The other thing with this, is that you can't see where the actual edge of the picture is. Can be a little more challenging to work with in some situations, but works well for having the picture "blend" into the background. :)

With this one, I selected the part of the picture I wanted unaffected and used a motion blur on the rest of the picture. Again, a wide variety of ways this can be employed. |
