35 of 365 is an improved photo #GIMP

So I had a snapshot that I thought captured my smile nicely, but had some other issues worth fixing. I opened the original in the GIMP, Removed some wayward beard with the smudge tool, tightened focus with the sharpen tool in a few places, removed background noise with the blur tool, brightened and added depth to the photo using the brightness/contrast feature, made the image grayscale using desaturate, and added a color overtone with the colorize feature. I think more than anything, I just wanted to make up for yesterday’s monster.

My very good friend Tim McGee asked me to bring balance to a photo of his dog, Maisy. I said I’d be happy to. Today, here’s a screencast of what I did to improve the photo in a few ways. Thanks for the opportunity, Tim!

So this is for Shaun Holland, who sometimes says Sad Panda to comment on a sad situation or person with just a touch of schadenfreude. Shaun makes me laugh all day long. This panda is not sad though, he’s just massive.

Obviously I’ve fallen in love with the painterly technique that Angel Bee suggested a while back. In this one, I tried to apply a sepia look and feel to this particular image, and painted into the image with various brushes.
