Photo Title & Recipe Link: Shrimp Scampi with Zuchinni and Tomato
Blog Name & Link: goodLife {eats}
Equipment Used: Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5, point and shoot
Technical Details: No Flash, Macro Setting
Photo Editing: It was very dark last night due to a storm. Times like these I’m so thankful for programs like Photoshop and the wonders they work!
-Increased the levels
-Adjusted the contrast
-desaturated the plate because the white was not white
-used the dodge tool on the plate to brighten it
-added a blue/white gradient map layer at 40% soft light to help remove excessive yellow
-sharpened the image
Setup Details: Kitchen table with a white board opposite light. Everyone waiting anxiously for dinner while I snapped shots as fast as I could.
Props: placemat from Kohls
Additional Tips: Learn Photoshop! It has really saved pictures that I thought were too far gone. This being one of them.

Wow! What a difference! My knowledge of Photoshop is so limited. I use Elements and can’t even figure out much with that! I really need to learn how to do more with it. If I could only find the time to spend with it.
