I have been going back through photos from the past couple months getting things ready to print. So, today's photos are from the holidays. I received Scott Kelby's book on PSE5 for Christmas (thanks, Mom!) and am really excited to learn more. This week's theme should force me to try some different things. These photos were just tweaking color contrast, brightness/contrast, etc. Nothing fancy.
These are photos of my sister's table on Christmas Eve.

That little bit of tweaking had a huge impact on the photo. . .I love how the red and white POP now. :)
That is a great difference! Looks so yummy!

a) I like the red and whites in the pic! b) I like what you did, it certainly changes the mood and brighten things up. c) I like the original, too, because it gives it a calm, winter-night-glow feel. Great job and have fun preparing for your retreat!
Sometimes the little things really make the difference!!! The reds really pop now :)
They look great. I love the red and white together.
How beautiful! The colors are fantastic! One minor little additional tweak might be to remove the glare from the flash in the middle of the M&M jar. Maybe with the healing brush (the one with the bandaid)? Or maybe someone knows a better way to do it. Hey Debbi, pea mail me when you get a chance! (I know how to receive and respond to pea mail, but haven't figured out how to send it yet!)I think we're even in the same kind of work!
you did a great job of brightening everything up without overdoing it! love the contrast of the red and white!
Oooh yummy! Love the red!
Great improvement. Very nice shot!
Wow...great improvement! Love the colors of these...they are so beautiful.
i really like the warmth of the original but the whites in the second are great! perhaps you could reduce the opacity of the brightening and get somewhere in the middle. love your composition.
You can really see the pp difference. Great work! Toni
that red really pops , nice job. I got that book to and need to get to reading it.
Nicely done! I love all of the red and white things!
What a gorgeous table. I love your composition of this shot and the way you captured the candle glow.
Yea, it's true...just that little bit really enhanced this photo. I love Photoshop!
Those reds really pop in the second one! Nice shot!
Oh, I love how it glows!! Great photo! I need a photoshop book, may have to invest in his 6 when it comes out!
Nice job bringing the lighting back out on this shot. It was definitely too dark in the first one. I also think the colors are a little brighter, so that is nice. Watch out that you don't bring out the exposure too much, we totally lost the flame on the smaller candle in the second one. Also from a composition standpoint I think there is just too much to focus on here. I'm not sure what the subject is and what I should be focusing on. I do like how all the colors match up, the nice whites and reds really make this a great shot.
