Playing around with Picnik

I've really been thinking lately about buying Photoshop or Lightroom. Anybody have suggestions of which they like best? It will probably be a few months until I purchase either one, hopefully after we get settled in Sacramento. So until then, I am using http://www.picnik.com/. I really like it and it's free, though I'm wanting to do more now with my pictures. Of course, I really don't have a lot of time right now either. Maybe when the kids are ALL in school!!

Here is a picture I took a couple of weeks ago. In Picnik I boosted the color and saturation just a little.



This is the sketch feature


Cross process - faded some


Lomo-ish - faded some


Kendall did these two with the doodle action. She had a lot of fun with it!!



When I get an editing program, I will have to work on this picture again and see the difference it makes.
