Playing with Photoshop

After
Before

I just got Photoshop Elements (for only $60 on Amazon!) and have spent the last few days playing with it. It made me realize that I have a LOT to learn about photography. I'm pretty new to the whole thing so hopefully I will get better with time. But I'm having a ton of fun trying to figure out photoshop. This is the picture I worked on today. Truth be told I don't like the finished product, I would much rather look at the original. But I did learn a lot about the software during the process. I took my son out for a little photo shoot and this was one of the very few pictures where he was sitting still and looking at the camera. Most of the picrues are of his back as he was running away from me.
