Zdorama's Fun With Photoshop!

Nanao gets the Photoshop Treatment
Some of you may not know it, but each and every picture and screencap I post on my blog gets edited in Photoshop; cropped, brightened, color-corrected, and sharpened, before I paste ‘em up into my entries. Even when I share magazine scans that I’ve acquired from other sources, I usually take the time to perk them up before I post them, and though this is meticulous and sometimes very draining, I love seeing the scans at their very  best!

Sometimes when I’ve done a editing job that I’m particularly happy with, I save both the edited picture AND the un-edited one, and today I thought I’d share some that I’ve saved over the past few months!

Even the scans I’ve shared of K-pop beauties like f(x)’s Sulli and AOA’s Seolhyun have been slightly(or massively, depending on the pic) tweaked to get my desired effect, and some have even told me that my edited photos look more like the original source scan than the REAL scan!

A couple of friends have told me they don’t like my photoshopping style, saying I make the photos look over-contrasted and un-natural looking, but when I post the images to accompany my blog entries, I want them to look as much like magazine pictorial captures as possible, so if they appear too saturated, so be it...As for me, I like how they look and since it’s my blog and the pics are accompanying MY writing, that’s how it’s going to stay, LOL!
