My first attempts at photo-editing
I recently found a program calle paint.net that is almost exactly like photoshop but it's completely free!!! I did some editing to some of my photos that I think turned out decent for my first time ever trying. Let me know what you guys think.







This one I semi-followed the tutorial to help add the "moving" effect more to the picture.



Threw some Volk TE37's on...I think they would look SEXAH!!!!

Looks good. Think you could try editing out those rock chips?

hey guys those look pretty good. If you want to make the effects look a little more natural and less jagged try feathering your selection 15-30 pixels it will smooth out the transition between the objects. If you choose your selection tool there is a feathering box up in the top area. I am a pro graphic designer and use that all the time. hope that helps for you all

+1 on what nzelinsky said...and anytime you're gonna edit pic-remove any imperfections/bloopers like the mustang has a reflection of the photographer in the bumper, etc.
otherwise i'd say you're off to a good start..
