What I Wore: I've Been Posterized

That sounds like something vaguely medical. I have been playing with the "Effects" in Paint.net, my photo editing program. When I have a routine photo of a rather ordinary outfit, I'm now turning it all kinds of artsy/silly.



I like "Posterize" because it: 1) completely eradicates lines and spots, and 2) shows where the light hits you. The outfit is a simple navy tee, striped knit skirt by Shabby Apple, and self-made denim vest (from a long sleeved shirt). The rose pendant, which poster-izes very nicely, is from Bella's Etsy shop.








I like this tool too, "Ink Sketch". Kind of spooky with black lips, yet playful:








I don't alter my photos for the blog, except for cropping, resizing and lighting. There are times when I'd like to "fix" some things but I am resisting. On the other hand, I don't show full-face close-ups either. I will work on getting the courage for that, to show that 50+ women have nothing to hide.



Do you like to play with special effects? Some of you may be skilled at the Big Daddy, Photoshop, but I don't own that one yet, and it intimidates me. ☺



Have a terrific Tuesday,
