Photo Opportunities-Burnsville’s Old Faithful on Facebook

Never Pass Up a Photo OP
You never know when a photo op will pop up. This morning when I opened the front door to retrieve the newspaper I saw a water shooting geyser in the middle of the street. Now that doesn’t happen every day. When I yelled up to my wife to look out the window she replied, “Have you taken a picture?” Why didn’t I think of that?  So I did.

Burnsville's Old Faithful-Photo Edited with CorrectPhoto and ImageTitler

Posting Photos on Facebook
Since I have a number Burnsville Facebook Friends I decided to post the photo on my page.
But, before I posted the photo on my Facebook page I cropped, color corrected, and resized the photo in CorrectPhoto and then added the text in ImageTitler.  I could have done what most people do and post the original photo, but I think you will agree the above photo has more impact.

Original photo before editing and adding a title

And, it was easy and it only took a couple of minutes to edit and title the photos. Recently, I have been looking at a lot of photos on Facebook and the vast majority of the photos friends post would be a lot better if they would take a few minutes to make them better. In a few days I will post a Facebook photo tutorial that will take you through the simple step by step approach to creating Facebook photos you will be proud to post.

Summary
The two purposes of this post are:

1. Remind you to keep your camera handy and take the once in a life time shot, even if it will be of little interest to anyone but you. In my lifetime I doubt I will see another geyser in the front of our house.

2. If you have a Facebook page I suggest you take a few minutes ensure that the photos you upload are ones you can be proud of.
