Photo Editing can be fun—if it is easy!
Yesterday is was 10 degrees below zero as I sat on our porch enjoying the warmth of the sun. Inside my wife’s colorful orchids where blooming and outside the snow was cold and white. I couldn’t resist taking a couple of photos with my trusty old Canon G5 in Auto Mode—actually I took about 20 shots.

And, if you have visited this blog before you know that I believe every digital photo can benefit from a little cropping and color correcting. I, of course, used CorrectPhoto because it is easy and I have the thumbnail images available to quickly pick the photo I want to edit. The OneClick color correction feature of CorrectPhoto makes color correction a snap. But, if you have Photoshop Elements and know how to use it go ahead edit the photo with it. You can add the OneClick color correction with iCorrect OneClick Plug-inand get the same quick color correction that is in CorrectPhoto.

As a few of my friends are finding out photo editing can be fun—if it is easy. I enjoy seeing how I can improve a photo more than taking the photo. The key to having fun is either having a photo editing program that is easy and fast to learn and use or really knowing how to use a feature rich editor like Elements. If you are creative, patient, and willing to learn Elements is an excellent program. For most folks it is too complicated and time consuming and, as a result, they simply do not edit their photos. If you are intimidated by photo editing I suggest you discover, as my friends Bill, Ron, and Dick (non of whom have patience) did, photo editing can be fun when they finally started using the copy of CorrectPhoto I gave them.

Since it is too cold to play golf in Minnesota in January (and most of the US) we might as well edit the photos we took this summer and dream of the warm weather just around the corner. And, think of Orchids.
