In our latest YouTube video, we pull images from The Candid Frame Flickr pool to discus Photoshop as a creative tool and not merely an end to itself. In each of the selected images, we examine how each photograph utilizes the power of the application to achieve a clear, and personal vision. Rather than creating images where the photo enhancement itself becomes the point of interest, the photographs are strong and beautiful images that stand on their own . Hopefully, it will inspire you to think differently about how you might use Photoshop in your own work. If you like what you are seeing in this video, please subscribe to the YouTube Channel as well as join the Flickr pool and submit your images to the growing number of photographs being shared by TCF listeners just like you.
