I’ve been meaning to build a few more example photos and thought that I would play around with some older photos. Today, I’m playing with the Sharp Shot Color Pop Pro action from EZ Actions. While many (dare I say MOST) of the people who use our Photoshop actions (which also work in Photoshop Elements) use them on portraits, some use the actions on other types of photos.
I’m originally from the East Coast (Maryland / D.C.) and we took a trip to visit some relatives a few years ago. While out there, we visited the National Zoo – which I always love (you should visit if you ever get the chance – and it’s free). I snapped a few shots of some of the creatures at the zoo (which also included my family – LOL).
Here, we see a photo of an otter (I just love otters, don’t you). It was nice to see the otters and the otter tank was positioned so that you could see the otters both above the water and below. The photo was shot through somewhat dirty glass and you as you can see, it has a bit of haze / glare. The photo isn’t bad, but look at the before and after and you can immediately see the benefit that the Sharp Shot Color Pop Pro action brings to the table. It takes a nice snap shot and turns it into something of a shot that you might see in a magazine or book.

Over the coming days and weeks, I’ll post more examples using different editing techniques. I hope you enjoy the photos and will come back for another visit.
Thanks,
John
