i adore digital image manipulation!! i've spent several years admiring and tinkering with digital art in various forms--yesterday i picked up a fantastic book (with a 40% off coupon--even better!) called Digital Expressions by Susan Tuttle. Absolutely perfect for me! I have the basic knowledge of what Photoshop Elements can do, but this book acts like tutorials showing step by step how to achieve certain looks!
the first little lesson was an easy vignette--i took it a step further and altered the color to be less saturated and a touch sepia--
next was a lesson in selecting objects, desaturation and color popping--because the statue had no color to begin with though, i added a spectrum gradient layer--
third lesson was all over the board--multiple photos, text, filters, brushes...
so much fun!

Very cool - I'm just not good with Photoshop, but I sure do admire folks who are! nancy
