image: PixDoor3.jpg ** Enhanced in Photoshop ** a simple reflection photo. the glass from the door is reflecting the front yard, but the sun is glowing through in some very unfortunate ways. using the patch tool the glow is removed from behind the trees and from the brass in the window.

image: PixLeaves.jpg ** Enhanced in Photoshop ** this picture was taken to show off autumn colors on a local oak tree. the sun glaring in the background spoiled the colors. the white glare was selected and deleted. a layer behind is a sky blue shade. the edges were feathered to remove any hard lines. the fall colors become more enjoyable.

image:ColumnPiece.gif ** created in Illustrator ** the red background has several gradients placed within it, then the white paths and red paths are added using the BLEND tool.
