and then she snapped: what i learned today

what i learned today

Tonight was my last photoshop class, it's been great in teaching me a few tips and tricks, and motivated me to teach myself some more!  Tonight we learned about sky replacement.  I took this photo last year when we had Chris' bff Mike and his family visiting up at Whidbey.  This was a great group shot (and the only one we got), except for the completely overexposed sky. 


This is the same photo, but I replaced the sky using a layer-mask technique.  I also adjusted the contrast on the people, and tried to tone down the brightness a little bit too.  I realize it's still not perfect, but it is such an improvement, I think!
