I haven’t participated in i heart faces Fix It Friday challenge in quite some time.  But this morning, when I first saw the photograph for the challenge I was motivated to try out some new PS Actions I had just downloaded yesterday.  You see, earlier this week I downloaded a trial version of Adobe Photoshop CS5 and I am totally hooked.

Here is the original photo readers of the i heart faces blog were given to apply their post-processing skills to:

And here is my version post-edited:

Fix It Friday edit by PK Photography

As I stated before, I am currently using Adobe Photoshop CS5.  To edit this photograph I first converted this image to black and white, then theTony Soft #2 Blur action and lastly I framed it out with the xFrame v2 Action.  All of these actions can be downloaded for free on the Adobe Exchange site.

If you love photography, which obviously I do, I suggest you click on over to the i heart faces blog and become a reader.  I promise the gurls at i heart faces will welcome you with open arms.  You just might learn a thing or two about photography while your there.  Or if your really knowledgeable about photography perhaps you wouldn’t mind sharing some of your knowledge with your fellow photographers.  And as a bonus you might just win something in one of their contest or giveaways that they have on occasion.  So click over now and join the i heart faces community.  See ya there!
