Photo aterations

Hello once again!

Two posts in one week?!  I'm obviously on a roll.  Just kidding.

Photo editing has become somewhat of a hobby of mine in the past years.  I work primarily on a mac and have found that, particularly after traveling somewhere interesting, I really enjoy altering the photos to enhance what my camera captured.  We used a few photo sharing sites in classes, which I found helpful.  My personal fave was 'instacollage', which allows you to make collages of photos you've taken on your iphone.  I personally made a mashup of two delightful cookbooks I found at my gramma's house: The Joys of Jello and The Right Touch For Chicken Microwave Cooking. I'm hoping that the reason I choose to make a collage of these specific photos is obvious...



I've also done some thinking about the learning that we're doing in ICT.  We're in a foturnate space while we're taking a computer class specifically designed for educators, but it's gotten me thinking about the advances technology will make while I'm a classroom teacher.  I think it's important for me to realize and understand now, prior to the beginning of my career, that I'll have to continually be aware of software updates and prepared to implement these tools into my classroom.  Below is a photo of my trip to Peru that I was able to edit.




So, there it is.   Photo editing.  Its fun.  Check it out!
