Week 3 Photo Editing

In week three practice session we had the opportunity to watch the paint and extreme photo designer movies. You watched a total of 6 movies: 2 movies explain skills on how to use some functions in the paint program (symmetry and tesstilation) and 4 movies explain skills on the use of Xterme photo designer (Clone, superimpose, liquidation, cut and past)

Next week (week four) in the practice session, we are going to do more practice on these skills. By the end of this week you have to have images that show me all the skills you learned from the movies. Please post all the images to your blog. Make sure you post the original images and the images you edited. This way I can tell what kind of changes and skills you applied to the original image.
