Red Gerbera Daisies Get a Make-Over
As an amateur photographer, I have tons of blurry, bad plain pictures. I delete tons of them also. Then I remember when I was in college and took a course in Photoshop to learn how to improve a certain image. So these last few months, I started to play around with my photos again.
Though I don't have Photoshop software anymore, I find some pretty great softwares online for free. These software are much simpler, doesn't take much storage space on the computer, and easier to manipulate.
I don't want to improve my pictures since I want to keep them in their original stage. However, I got the idea of using the bad ones and turn them into an art piece, especial if the pictures have some nice features about them.
To avoid shocking you, I will present the finished art pieces first, and then show you the original blurry ones.

Icy, I liked the original photos, but I love how you doctored them.
I almost fell out of my chair when I saw the third Make-Over. It is astonishing how you transformed the original image. I love the camera angle, but might not have noticed it in the blurry version.
Icy, I love the new look one. It's almost like you turned the photo into fabric. It's awesome! I have so many bad photos as well. I should really start doing something with them. Thanks so much for sharing these. It gives me inspiration.
These are really cool! Wow! I would have never thought to do something like that. Quite inspiring...really! :) Thank you for sharing.
