Last month my eldest bro paid a visit back from Japan. I managed to sacrifice my weekend planning and took the half-day bus travelling under the shine of moon back to perlis to meet him, regardless to the consequeces of procrastination and whole night suffering circumstances on the bus. Ya.. it was a 11-12 hours travelling time from skudai to kangar, no doubt!
Back to the point, I juz want to share a photo-editing software which I saw my bro using to deal with his photos. I am considered a totally new bird in such application. So it is quite ridiculous for me to yield any recommandation. By the way, since I found out that it was easy to be applied and fast to be learned, I would like to share the piece of work I did.
CASE1: IF too dark and ppl are not in centre + small
( i state IF coz the photo might be taken intentionally that way. esp the centre is not aiming at the ppl. But since different ppl always come out with different tastes, this software can help up to do edit or rectification )

-original

-crop and highlighted
( paiseh… the sea and sky are hard to be distinguished after editting.. thx to my poor technique)
CASE2 : For the purpose of defame kidding with friends !

-original

-soft focus

- focal B&W
( I feel someone gotta kill me after the upload….)
CASE3: Historical moment

- original
-sepia
( my housemates during 2nd year….I miss the hair cuts and the smiles!!! so adorable !
)
I am not a expert, juz tried up sth interesinting in editing photo. Maybe this software cannot fulfill proffesionals’ requirement and specification. For newbie, I think this should be sufficient.
After a long story to tell.. let me unveil the identity of this software… " Picasa " is its name.
It can be downloaded from Google for free. Size around 24 MB only. Simply a search in google and u can get more information abt that.
Lastly, I would like to express my sympathy and compassion for seh tat and chen tat for willing to sacrifice their images to help me in completing this post. Their contribution is much appreciated. They show me the way how does the phrase " friendship is priceless" sound…. Thanks to them from the bottom of my heart.
~~KIDDING LAR…
p/s: I dare to guarantee both of them are "straight guys" regarding to my understanding abt them.
