Photography pleez HELP ME!!!!?

hey everyone!
well i have a regular digital camera nothing fancy, just what you use to take pictures on vacation.

i was taking some pictures with it and i saw that if i added some effects (to make it look as if it were from a fancier camera) the pictures would look amazing!

so i want to know if anyone knows the name of an online software that is FREE thats could possibly provide the effects and programs for the pictures:]

a software that could do this for example:

see the lighting and the shadows?

okay thanks!

and ill be sure to pc a best answer by the end of today or tommorow morning!

That picture doesn't look fancy at all. (Or amazing.) Just turn off the flash and have a bright light source on one side.

Picasa is free, so is Gimp but a lot harder to get the hang of. Adobe Photoshop Elements is a good program to buy. No program will make an "amazing" picture from a mediocre snapshot. Your best bet to improve your images would be to take a class, or pick up a beginner's book on photography and start to learn some technical and artistic stuff. Then practice what you learn.

Photography.... retouching images....?

For a beginner photographer, what is the best way to retouch digital images? Is there a software program needed, or are images sent to a professional photo developer to develop pictures that need to be retouched?

Please help.

Photoshop Elements is an outstanding program for retouching or improving on digital images. It is not expensive compared to the latest Photoshop, CS4, about 1/6th the cost. If you are a Costco member, it is available right now for $50.

For a lesser cost, try Ebay for Photoshop Elements 6, last years release. Just make sure it is discribed as new in original packaging. Also, you could start with GIMP which is free to download.

It is a lot of fun working with images. Good luck.

what photo software should i start with for my photography courses?

Im getting a digital SLR camera and im taking photography classes. should i buy Photoshop cs3..or know of any others thats better price but great quality? i have a desktop with Vista incase that matters. Ive used photo editing software but basic stuff.

If you are enrolled in a photography school, ask the instructor. If you are a student, you should be eligible for student discounts on almost any software. You might have to send in proof, or show a student ID, but it would be worth it. (I know Photoshop CS3 is only around $150 with educational pricing)

If you are willing to spend the time to learn it, Photoshop would be the way to go. Photoshop Elements has most of the features of its big brother, and in some respects a nicer user interface. It can be had for around $100 ($35 educational). You might also want to take a look at LightRoom. Your DSLR should also come with a basic editing software / RAW converter.

can i find a software for digital photography, that replace kodachrome 64 for film photography?

i love the overtones of kodachrome 64 and i wonder if i can find in digital era something similar. thank you!

I was lucky and I managed to shoot 7 rolls of Kodachrome before it was discontinued. It was the first time I had ever tried slide film, and I was absolutely amazed. It was awesome, like nothing I had ever seen before.

I have NEVER seen a program do a decent job of "simulating" Kodachrome, or any kind of film for that matter. It just doesn't look anything like the real thing. The colors and tones just don't look right. And it never can. You just can't replicate the look of real silver halide with a computer.

That Alien Skin program is horrible. It's funny though. Everyone wants to try to make digital pictures look like film. Why don't they just use film?? The funniest one is a program called "PolaDROID"...as you probably guessed, it's a program to try to simulate Polaroid pictures. But it's absolutely horrible. It has a really bad green tint with fake vignetting and looks nothing like real Polaroid pictures. Most of the programs that are used to "simulate" film were written by people who probably only used digital cameras and have only a very vague idea of what certain films look like.

Your best bet is to look for an E-6 film that might have a somewhat similar look to Kodachrome. Nothing is going to be exactly like Kodachrome. It was a one-of-a-kind film. But maybe you can find something that's close to it. But you're going to have to use REAL film. You can't fake it with a computer.

I'm about to jump into "green screen" DSLR photography & need advice on affordable editing software. Anyone?

I've been doing photography for years, but am new to Chromakey work and am considering the purchase of a green screen. I have background images, but I'm looking for a software package that will drop the green and add my new backgrounds. Someone told me Adobe Elements worked well, and I've noticed other software programs online that I've never heard of. I'm looking for something reasonably priced and easy to use. Thanks!

Are you looking for a specific editor? Or any photo editor that will run on your computer?

GIMP is free and fairly robust.

However, it seems you are pretty serious. You might save up the $200 and get CS2. It is a very nice photo editor.

I use Elements and it is only $79 or so.
