and then she snapped: show {off} your shot

This week was kind of slow for link ups, I think because of the little blogger mishap last week (you know, when blogger died for almost 24 hours)...and some of your comments were deleted on last week's post as well. But we still had some FABULOUS entries. Like, for example, this one...isn't it gorgeous?

Congratulations to this week's winner, Becky! from Rub Some Dirt on It!

So these shots were taken on our 48 hours in San Francisco a couple weeks ago, but in order to get the exposure right I had to take a couple different shots. In the first one, I like the detail on the building, but the sky and bridge are over-exposed. The second one, the building is too dark, but the sky is beautiful. So I layered them in photoshop elements (with the first one on top) and "erased" the overexposed sky, letting the better one show through.

So here is the finished product. What do you think? I LOVE it. : )

I want to clarify that you can link up any photo you want each week. I don't choose themes, and you DO NOT HAVE TO FOLLOW MY TIP. I would LOVE if you could share a tip of your own each week, but if you don't have one, please feel free to show {off} your shot anyway!

Now it's your turn! Link up!

~~Rules~~ Guidelines:

~One photo per person, and the photo must be taken by you.

~Blog about your photo and share something about how you took the photo, or how you edited it. (because it is so fun to be able to learn from one another).

~Add my button (below) to your blog post...(text links are ok too, but please do link back to me ~~or I might cry~~)

~Link up to your blog or Flickr page, (but please link up to your specific post and not just your blog homepage...if I can't tell what post you are linking up I will have to delete the entry).

If you have ANY questions, feel free to email me.

I can't wait to see what you come up with this week!
