Experiment

I was fooling around with my Samsung the other day, and I found this interesting special effect. I would like to learn how to do a picture mostly black and white with something (like a flower) in color. I don't have Photoshop, though. I have Paint Shop Pro. I could probably do it with my program. but most tutorials out there are for Photoshop.

I thought this effect that's built into the camera was kind of close. It's interesting, anyway. There's also a feature that will make only a circle in color, but it's a little awkward looking for the pictures that I took. This is one of the pictures I took in the Butterfly House at Hershey Gardens a few weeks ago.

This weekend is supposed to be really nice. I would like to go somewhere and play around with my DSLR. My niece is sleeping over this weekend, so maybe we can take her to the park on Saturday. There's a nice park close to here with boats and a playground. I'm hoping it won't be too crowded, since this is a holiday weekend. If I take anything good, I'll post it here.

  2. Isn't that cool? Let me know what you find out. It took me awhile to find that feature. I've had the camera a little over a year, and I guess I saw it when I first was playing with the features, because I remember some of the other things I can do, like frames, etc. I guess I since I didn't see the appeal at the time that I forgot about it.
