I really should apologize for not posting as often as I should. If you follow my other blog, Growing in Him, you've probably realized that I've been very busy over the past few weeks. With it being hot and humid most of the day, photography has taken a seat on the back burner. Don't worry though! I took a lot of photos this spring and early summer --probably enough to keep this blog going for year! Last weekend, I downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements 8. It's been so much fun learning how to use the program so I've added it to my list of things to save for. :-) Here are a few photos that I tweaked with PSE.

| In this photo, I enhanced the blue skies... I left the water and sand untouched. |
 |
| This little bird is a longtail chick. Longtails nest and raise their babies in little rock crevices...we found this one while exploring the beach. It was difficult to photograph him/her because he was so far into the rock but the picture's not too bad once edited a bit with Photoshop! |
 |
| An adult longtail swoops in to check out a hole in the rocks. I tweaked the greenery on the rocks a bit to enhance their color. |
 |
| For this beach shot, I enhanced both the greenery and sky color. But I left the beach and water in it's original color. |
