Lights, Camera.........ACTIONS

Posted by Kateri

Okay....I have been waiting for this day for a long long long time now. I took ACTION. Well, actually I bought some......ok, let me explain:

What many of you don't know about the art of photography in this digital age, is that the great shots captured in a photo shoot are more about composition...and therefore only the BEGINNING of breathtaking art.....the true magic happens in the digital darkroom, where through the wondrous capabilities of Photoshop CS3, each picture can be transformed from "nice pic" to "STUNNING MASTERPIECE."
Most of you probably have no idea what a Photoshop "action" is....basically its a collective set of pre-programmed elements that combine together for one-click enhancement options. Now a lot of Photoshop pros have blessed the digital photography world with their way cool sets of "actions" available for purchase. (Thanks to Photoshop...computer nerds are now superheros of the art world!....just pretty much the coolest people ever:)
Anyhoo, I just purchased downloaded a new action set from Boutwell Studios and it definitely was the best purchase I could have ever made. Nearly 50 actions = endless possibility.

Check these out.......
