Hi there readers .. it’s been so long since I last blogged that I’m getting a rusty around my social media and blogging efforts!! So to start me off again I saw this challenge in my RSS feed by Alex Beadon, a favourite blogger photographer I love to read. She does a series called ‘Edit This’ and shares one of her photographs for her readers to edit. I’ve done this once before and shown the results on this blog. So I’m here to show another one … plus the challenge is still open for another few days yet so why not have a read of her blog here and submit your own edit too.

Below is my edit of Alex’s photos, the original shows on the left and to the right of the slider is my edit. That way you can move the slider left and right to reveal the before and after!! Cool eh? Well for this edit I decided to challenge myself by seeing what can be done 100% within Adobe Lightroom and the Alien Skin Exposure plugin .. well the result is as you see. Pretty darn good in my opinion :)

Plus for easier viewing, here’s the finished retouched photo.

I love that Alex has a series for other togs like me to participate in <3
