Let's have a picnic!

A picture taken at our Ferryland lighthouse picnic that has been seriously overcooked using Picnik. I even applied a "sticker" to it...

Before on top, after below - click for more bigger-ness. The whole thing took around ten minutes.


So I guess I'm a little late to the game on this thing, but sweet mother! Do you like taking pictures? Are you getting to the stage where you would like to start "retouching" them? Are you not interested in paying several hoji for Photoshop? If so, you need to give this a try. Picnik, in combination with Picasa, is an incredibly affordable (read: free), versatile, and fun photo organization and editing solution. Check 'em both out!

You don't need Picasa to get on with Picnik by the way, I just like them both.

Note: this is not a replacement for Photoshop and Lightroom or other more "professional" tools. Picnik is much more limited and does not support raw files (yet?) for example. What it is, however, is the cat's pyjamas! Or is that the bee's knees?
