The wonderful thing called photo editing…

It’s really amazin how a plain photograph can turn into something so much more. Though some may say that photo editing can cause more damage to the picture, than to actually enchance it. Well, it is true. But to some people, photo editing can be their saving grace, basically because not everyone can shoot like a pro.

In my own personal opinion, and experiences. I prefer the kind of editing that you can barely notice the difference between the raw photograph and the post processed one.

I focus more on the ff:

- Brightness
- Exposures
- Contrast
- Temperature
- Saturation

In short, the basics.

As much as possible I avoid using clip arts, floral frames, or borders. Especially if I’m not using the picture for web designs and it’s only for portraits, then I use only the basics.

I’m not a professional artist, or graphic designer. But I have a few experiences when it comes to photoshop or photo editing during my college days, so that’s where I got my opinions regarding this topic.

And I seriously love the two photos of mine above. I cannot believe that with only two iphone applications, that can already happen.

Amazing! :-)

Though I sincerely doubt the need for the copyright for this photo…

Ugh, can I just be honest? because I really can’t describe this picture without using the word “ugly”. And that’s why I had to put the dots when I was about to describe it. I just cannot find a better, or more subtle word for this poor replica of my face.

But yes, this is my creation. I was the one who was brave enough to post this online without thinking of the humiliation that it might cause me. Because I was, and still hoping that I can get away with having poor animation skills because of (1) my brush was my finger (2) i’m not really a skilled animator. So, please bare with me as I plan on posting more of this indescribable artwork of mine because I’m planning to practice and learn more techniques so that someday I can brag about how skilled I have become. 

So i’d like to thank My Sketch Paper application on my iPad for helping me achieved, at least, 5 % of what I want to attain. Though honestly, it is really a great app plus it’s free! And also, the Afterlight application that helped enhance the colors of my artwork. 

And there, I got stuck with the question how can people relate to this post? 

What is change?

Well, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary on my iPad, it means to make different in some particular or to make radically different. And I do believe that without even saying those definitions, we all know what change is. As a matter of fact, you can see change everywhere. You can see it in people, in your environment, and even in yourself. You can see changes in yourself whether it is mentally, emotionally, and of course, physically. And change actually plays a big role in our life, because it is the only thing that is consistent in this world.

So, why am I even asking about what change is?

Because, you see people, this moving to another blog thing is an example of change. Because creating something new, and leaving something behind is change. And I thought that it would be better if I begin this post with defining and stating some of my opinions about what is this post is all about.

And yes, this is all about change. One is past tense, and the other one is future tense.

1.) I have changed

2.) I will change

In the past months, actually, since last year I haven’t been updating my previous blog about what is going on with my life. So you guys wouldn’t know that I’m already a graduate of AB Communication Arts, major in Advertising and Public Relations or that I’m already working full time if it wasn’t for my instagram pictures that I have chosen to post directly from instagram to my blog.

So, from now on, I will be updating this blog with my life stories, my experiences and a few personal tips that I would to share to my readers. I now aim higher, I won’t settle for anything less. At least, not anymore. I will strive and work hard for my goals. And one of them, is to become a good blogger. A blogger that people can relate to, and a blog that neticenz can rely in times of need.

The changes that will occur in this blog that I would like to emphasize are the following:

- I will be sharing helpful and informational topics as much as I can.

- I will try to focus on a theme, like if this blog is going to be a fashion blog, or what. Though I’m still considering whether I should stick to being personal blogger or not.

- I will post VLOGS.

And that would be all, FOR NOW. Because I honestly don’t know if I can stick to my goals, but I really want to make it all happen. And lastly, I will try to make this blog more mature, or in other words, I will avoid posting too much information about my love life, or too much ranting. Though, I will still re-blog, but please be reminded that I will only re-blog those that really catches my eyes and attention.

Thank you!
