I've mentioned before that I've been trying to learn how to actually make Photoshop more than just an $600 cropping tool. I figure it could really help me at work and while I'm learning, I can get away with doing a lot of things on personal photos while I should be working with the rationalization of "Heeeyyyy! I'm trying to leeeeaarrrrn!"
Although I can't quite come close to this person, there have been several cool tricks she's taught me via her website and I've learned a lot of stuff I didn't before know could be done. This morning I was playing with this photo of The Dormouse from Easter morning and attempting this cool eye trick.
In the process, you have to blow the photo way up to get at the eyes. Here's what I found:
Don't see it? Look closer.
That's me taking the picture reflected in her eye.

That is so neat!! And those eyes are hauntingly beautiful. If that's a compliment.

that's amazing!!! I wish I could figure photoshop out. I leave it to my sister. She's seriously the most amazing photographer (see her name on my blogroll... Sara Boulter)
Your daughter is so darling!

Okay... she's gorgeous. (But you already know that.) The very first thing that came to my mind as you zoomed in on her eyes was that song by Martina McBride "In My Daughter's Eyes."
And, thanks for sharing that link. I am practicing my way through to mastership of Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver. I am thinking I probably should have paid the $120/term for community classes to master each of them separately. Would have been faster!!! LOL
