Task 8.

I wish I could figure out a way to copy and paste the metadata (all at one time) from the properties. Anyone know how to do that?

Here is my info, and it is the camera on the "P" function and auto all the way, LOL! I came out of Best Buy yesterday just at sunset and saw this view above the parking lot. Took this from my car.

Metadata:
Date Time:1/10/2011 5:17 PM
Canon Powershot XS 130 IS
Shutter Speed 1/250 seconds
F Stop: f/5.0
Aperture Value: f/5.0
Max Aperture Value: f/4.5
ISO Speed: 80
Focal Length: 14.7 mm
Flash: Did not fire (No strobe return detection (0); Compulsory flash suppression (2))
Metering Mode: Evaluative


A screen-shot would work.

I thought of that but thought I would have to save it as a jpg rather than do a copy/paste. Hmm, didn't try it out, though. Off to try it now. Thanks!

You are using it again for today's task and then for an upcoming layout so you don't need to do anything with it until you upload the layout.

Jumpstart January - Task 5

I'm a little behind because I've been reading tuts and doing a few things that have delayed me. I'm sure that I'll catch up and if I don't, I'm certainly enjoying the journey. :-)

I've been playing with PSE9, because I'm considering upgrading to it from PSE7, on my Laptop PC, with Win7.

I've used dodge, burn and other settings in the layers palette, but never used the separate dodge or burn tools, in the tools panel before. I've found that they can be both used at the same time on one layer, to adjust shading (burn) and highlighting (dodge).

My photo that I took through the screen door was dull looking, although it had a bright spot of sun. I used the burn tool, with a large soft brush, at 30% and dabbed around the outer edge, making it darker. I then used the same brush, with the same settings, but with the dodge brush and dabbed a bit around the centre area, which brightened it and the harsh sun didn't seem as harsh. A little dab with the burn brush over the cardinal on the bird feeder and you can almost see it. lol

I enjoyed the process and the results so much that I made a layout with the photo and posted it in the UFO challenge, because I've wanted to do something with that photo for a long time. Yes, I would definately use these tools again!!! Thank you for the wonderful challenge. :-)

My play tools are: CS5.5, PSE9; PRE9; PSPX2, on a Laptop PC, with Win7

Task 9: Journaling
Journaling- I look out the window, you wouldn't think its about 60 degrees outsides. Seeing the gas tank reminds
me that I need to go out there and check our gas levels. I know we're getting close to needing to call Barnets.
The sky is beautiful, our mountains are peaceful. Even our weeds look at peace. I live in a wonderful place.
Task 10: Journaling Product
Journaling labels from Syndee Nuckles "A Collage Unleashed" Collection Biggie http://store.scrapgi...llection-Biggie

Yeah all caught up.

We don't typically require challenges to use SG specific products so you can use what you have. Maybe you can look for some that are similar to what you have or maybe start a wish list and post those links?

Should the products we "have not used but had to have" be products from the list in task 3, or can we use other products we have not yet used?

You are all having such fun with Jumpstart January - afraid I'm soooo not jumping at all right now into anything! But I'm enjoying reading all of your comments here and seeing your progress - I'll be back one of these days - honestly, why couldn't I have done the broken rib thing when I was 20!!!! Would it have been any easier?
