Conversation About a Snail, or, Photo-editing with Picasa: Focal B&W Filter
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008 | Home Life, Photos |
KATIE: Look at my snail!
ME: Oh, wow. What’s his name?
KATIE: Little Tiny Turtle.
…
KATIE: He’s really brown.
I took that photo Father’s Day morning after we dressed the girls. I loved the photo, but for some reason the picture was way out of focus:
I used Picasa’s Focal B&W effect in Picasa to salvage the picture by making the lack of sharpness less noticeable. The effect is pretty self-explanatory: set the point you want to be the center of your color circle, then use the sliders to adjust how big you want the circle to be and how distinct/sharp you want the edge of the circle to be.
