Hi,
really good decription. Thanks.
Christoph
I really like your show. I am listening to all the episodes in order and just got to 19 (I am catching up fast). I am from Madison, Wisconsin, USA and I would have never found you had it not been for iTunes podcasts. I have been doing some digital photography in the past, but I have a new camera (Canon SD400 Digital Elph 5MP tiny camera. I like the size of the camera because now its easy for me to take my camera everywhere!
I travel to Germany some for work. Will be there in the fall for a conference in Coberg. Then probably down to Octoberfest with some customers. Germany is a great place!
I have a question on post processing, if you have time please answer, if not I understand. You talk about layers. I have CorelDraw Essentials and use Photo-Paint. I dont see a layer feature, but after listening to #19 podcast, I tried to add noise to a photo and did not need to create a layer, I could just add it to the photo. If you know the program at all is this the way to do it or is there a layer feature I am missing?
keep up the good work!
Regards,
Steve
Steve,
unfortunately I’m not familiar with the programs you mentioned. If they don’t do layers and you still got your desired effect, then I’d say everything is alright!
