During a field trip my photography class took, most of us got together and had lunch at Mellow Mushroom. I guess there were some sort of cut glass windows in there acting as prisms, because there were rainbows everywhere! I captured one on a salt shaker. At some point I moved my face into one of these rainbows and someone told me not to move. Now, being a photography class, there were plenty of cameras to choose from and whoever it was who shot the photo, used mine...lucky me! I was feeling kind of blah that day and the photo showed it! Bags under the eyes, dull-looking skin, grungy gray t-shirt, hair all a mess, NO makeup on, etc. Fortunately, I had that rainbow over one eye to give me a little color.
Enter PhotoShop! I love, love, LOVE this program! Get rid of the bags, give the skin a makeover, change the color of the t-shirt to something a little more flattering, change the hair COMPLETELY, and add a little lipstick. Below, you will find the original and the edited photographs.
I call the one on the right "Medusa meets Rainbow Brite".
