Tonight I finished chapter 7 which was basic image retouching. I used some of my park photos from the other day as they needed some help...(so do I, but I don't think adobe will work on me) lol...This photo below I thought came out pretty good but then after tweaking it in Adobe elements I was pleasantly surprised...I probably could have done more with it but sometimes you need to stop before you over do it...
It's amazing what you can do...I still believe a truly good photo doesn't need to be retouched but I'm learning it doesn't hurt to give your photos a boost when they need it.I am skipping chapter 8 as it is mainly dealing with RAW photos and I do not shoot in RAW mode nor does my camera have it...Chapter 9 deals with fine-tuning your photos. Fixing blemishes, scratches and the clone tool....So stay tuned for those results....

YUP! I agree with all you have said. One would hope that our photos are so good that they don't need "fixing" but hey we are human. Now if only they could bring out an Elements for us daggy people of this world - the over 40s!!
