OK, not really, but I'm learning a ton of new things.
So, here are some samples of what I have learned so far. First simple understanding of using layers and adding some funky color for shock value!
Then I took advantage of another stunning fall day to get some late afternoon shots. This one I added some soft light, texture, and nice sentiment with text.
And then I really got into it, using several merged layers, more texture, vivid color, and some artistic effects. I could play with this stuff all day.
This photo started out from a Sony point and shoot and I really liked the original, but I have to tell you, this version pretty much knocks my socks off! I know is personal taste, but I hope a few others like it too.
I'm sure I will share more as I learn this new-to-me software. Feel free to leave any favorite techniques you may have in the comments section, that would be great!
M.E.

Isn't the course great - I am on it aswell. I admire Kim's masterpieces I wanted to see how she does her workflows and learn all her useful tips and she has given us so many already.
I love your last photo - if you're over on my blog on Sunday you'll see that I was playing around with similar levels as you were and making pictures look surreal. Doesn't time fly when your creating things though!
I have PSE 8 and will be upgrading to 9. It is so much fun - I love actions. Check out coffeeteaphotography.blogspot.com for free actions and tutorials!
I am loving Kim's class, too! I have PSE 8 and there are so many shortcuts and things I've learned from her, it's great! :) And your last edit is pretty cool!
I think your texture photo is wonderful!!! I took the first session and have not had time to catch up with the others.....maybe tomorrow! I want to learn so badly!!!!!
