I wanted to show you the difference in a slight change in my chocolate cake bead photo editing that I did this weekend. I think it makes a positive change and wanted to share it with you.
The lower photo shows how the photo was originally edited. I used the aluminum take out lid that I wrote about in an earlier blog. I used my Photoshop Elements 4.0. Please note, I am far from being an expert in this and seem to bobble along and get by.
I posted that bottom photo as my chocolate cake's first shot in my etsy listing. And then looked at it and wondered what would happen if I tried putting a white background behind it instead.

Do you have any little photo tricks that you wouldn't mind sharing? Please let us know.
And until then, enjoy the chocolate layer cake a la mode with dripping vanilla ice cream. Yum.
Just for fun, here is a recipe for a delicious double chocolate layer cake from one of my favorite recipe sources, epicurious.com.
Marcy, That looks good enough to eat! Nummy!
ReplyDeleteThat's a big improvement in the chocolate cake! I just built a light tent on Sat. and have playing with that.
ReplyDeleteMarcy, your beads are just wonderful! I look forward to visiting your blog to see what you are up to!

WOW! That looks GREAT! I might have to steal that background idea. I've been trying a few different things here and there and keep going back to plain white.
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteI post these ideas so people can take them and run with them, (but not with scissors-Karen). And better yet, let us know how it all goes.
I could also show you what not to do- like think you're getting creative by using white paper towels, because they might add a little "texture" to the background. Doh!
