In this episode I’ll finish the editing of the image that kept me busy in the last shows. There was a lot to do – darkening the ship with a selective layer mask, cloning out some driftwood and half a bird, correcting the aspect ratio to something the printer will be happy with and giving him a hint how to print the image with a gray and colour gradient.
Before I really send the image to the printer I’ll make the birds in the top left corner a bit darker – but you know how to do that.
Meet the GIMP! is now listed in iTunes and Podcast Alley. If you like the show please let the people there know. 
And if you live in the USA, have some time in the fall and want to improve your photography, click on this link to the Tips from the Top Floor Workshops.
I can recomend them, you’ll have a lot of fun and learn a lot.
