Walking along the Boise River, my eyes caught a glimpse of the distant foothills covered in snow. I made this photo and then, upon returning home, put it up on my laptop.
It’s a decent photo. Not bad. But the colors don’t represent the vividness that caused me to pause my walk, enjoy a moment to take in the scene, and then click off several photos of the view.
So…I went to work.
Please keep reading. At the end of this post is a free offer for all subscribers of “Do Everything In Love by SE Fairbanks.”
First, I cropped the photo and applied a basic enhancement.
There we go; now we’re beginning to bring this photo to life!

Or how about this—
This haze effect creates a warm-fuzzy feeling among the contrasts of colors.
Any photo can become black and white. This is a basic black and white with no extra frills.
We’ll end today’s photo exploration with two vignettes. And, of course, text can be added to any photo to create a customized piece of photo art!
