As much as I love Chicago and the snow, I'm now ready for spring to be here. I miss warm-er weather and flowers starting to poke their heads out of the ground. I always get excited when I start to see crocus shoots and buds on the tree branches. Silly I know, but it means that warmer weather is coming and Chicago winters always seem to drag on longer than they should.
So I was going through my nature photos taken this past spring/summer and have decided to put some up to bring some warm weather cheer to my blog. Enjoy.
























I've been seeing a lot of posts on Facebook and Pinterest regarding the work that goes into hiring a photographer - all the work behind the scenes that you don't get to see. I've also see various photographers posting before and after photos as examples. So here is my before and after example, I took and edited this photo awhile ago, but it shows the best, extreme example of post-processing on photoshop.
