Sometimes, well, a lot of times I will get a photo that I know I would just LOVE if it wasn't so awful and blurry. We can't always have the perfect photo set up.
This photo was taken at my son's Halloween school parade. The kids walked by so fast they made me dizzy. I shoot in manual mode, so I didn't have time to get the right settings on my camera. The lighting was horrible. This was the outcome. Pretty bad. When I opened up my pictures I loved the expressions on his face. I just couldn't throw it out. I decided to mess around and see what I could come up with....
A little cropping, text, adding a sepia tone and an action that added some texture to the photo, I really fell in love with this picture. Do you get so caught up in that perfect exposed, sharp image that you might be missing some really great pictures? Try some texture to a photo. It might just turn that "bad" photo into a cool work of art.
