I recently had to say „bye bye“ to Adobe Photoshop CS2; my old mousepad on my last but one laptop started to give up the ghost. Rather than having to resort to downloading GIMP again (great software but not very intuitive) I splashed out on Photoshop Elements. Not happy about having to pay for it again as I already own Elements and CS 2 on another (steam powered) laptop but cannot for the life of me find old password! Needs must.

In order to test the new version of Elements out I thought I would have a go at revamping some pics which look like they were edited with stand in software.

These are the results:

Second Anglo Afghan War Brits – 66th Berkshire Regiment of Foot

Afghan Tribesmen:

These Afghan Tribesmen were entered into the Salute 2011 painting competition and made it to the finals table. Unfortunately they were trumped by other superb painting and deservedly so. I managed to retain my „Finals Table“ card which I have somewhere safe. A proud moment of sorts.
