I ♥ Faces "Black" photo challenge!

This week the challenge is for your photo to have some black in it but not be a black and white photo. I just took a bunch of pictures of this cute little girl for a friend of mine. I love the way the black stands out against the background of gold.

Edit me challenge!

Another edit me photo challenge! I loved this picture of a vintage camera so I thought I would play around with it and see how I could edit it. Here is the original:

I don't own Photoshop. I used Paintshop Pro X2 for my editing. I used multiple textures to create this look. I also cropped it pretty tight to really focus on the camera itself.

Let me know what you think! To see more great edits head on over to:
