Willa Is Stunning in Relevé-Écarté Front

Willa Is Stunning in Relevé-écarté Front. I want to thank those of you who have been pushing me to learn Photoshop.

 

This is really very crude. I haven't experimented sufficiently with "enhancing the edges," I ran out of time. I have to supply something for the Performance Program NOW.

 

Actually all I used PS for in this case was to select the dancer so i could free her from that horrible brick wall. Also it helped to focus on her in a sea of other delightful dancers. Now I fear every dancer in the photo shoot will want one of them. (;-) Next time, I expect photo shoots to have a smooth background. (;-) It's still a very useful way to isolate a subject in a group. It has a value. I have learned a little about how to use one small but significant technique. Selecting an object in a jumble of noise. Similarly colored noise made it tough.

 

I am glad I overcame my fear and plunged ahead. Contrary to the popular usage, Photoshop has a very shallow (not steep) learning curve. That means you learn slowly in relation to all you need to know. But, what's the rush?

 

P.S. I did succeed in saving my enhancements last evening. Thanks to the Starbucks section of my local Barnes and Noble. I sat and read PS books until I thought i could do it. I didn't close the file until I had the method.
