Edit Me

Last week I missed the Edit Me Challenge because I was too busy. This week again I am too busy, but I snuck in a very quick edit.  The original image was provided by Amanda.  She lives in the Bahamas. I'm so jealous.

So the only thing I saw wrong with the picture she provided was that I wasn't there in person!  I have been to the Bahamas myself in 2004 and I'd love to go back.  My favorite part of the Bahamas is the incredible blue waters. There was absolutely no way I was going to crop out any of that beautiful water from her picture.  Again I'm so jealous.  The water here in New Jersey gets nothing like that.

So I cleaned up the beach and moved the kayaker. I thought the yellow kayak was a little too much so I used the color replacement brush to tone it down a little bit.  I added a Cyan photo filter and did some minor level tweaking. I'm sure I could go further with the edit, but I have too much else to do on my plate.

Thanks Amanda for providing the picture and giving me a little slice of heaven to look at for my lunch break.

My Edit

Here it is without the words. Oh that pretty water I want to go there now.


Here is the original picture provided by Amanda.


Swing by the Edit Me Challenge for all the other edits.
