Macro Friday #21



I had edited this photo in Lightroom 3, back when I had the trial. I added a watermark in photoscape because I have become extremely nervous about my photos getting stolen. So that's why the little cloud is in the middle. Anyone who steals that photo will have a hell of a time cloning out the cloud. But photoscape has restrictions on the opacity of watermarks.

Luckily, I got photoshop elements back because my brother has a license for it. I have been happily editing photos for a couple weeks now. Some of my photos still have that cloud, but pse has much better tools for adding watermarks. I have also started saving my photos twice - an unmarked, hi-res copy for myself, and a watermarked, low-res copy that I resized for web.

  1. Yeah dude... having photos stolen is the pits :o( I've found mine in weird places. Super annoying to deal with watermarking etc. Sigh. I just wish I could watermark my text or something - I've had posts stolen too. I guess it's a form of flattery? I dunno - I have a hard time seeing it as that.

  6. Lovely shot. I'm thinking of changing my watermark again now that I'm posting bigger photos on the internet or else move the watermark more into the centre of the shot so that it can't get cropped.
