I am a semi-curious person by nature. I ask a lot of questions. Mostly because I'm a fan of learning. So I'm going to start mini surveys in the sidebar from time to time. This new segment will be called "Truth or Truth," dubbed after a game my sisters invented on a roadtrip when they ran out of daring options in their confined vehicle.
So, here we go. My first question deals with Photoshop Actions. Nicole can attest that when I first discovered Actions, I was flabbergasted. I learned that I had perhaps been attempting to photographically accomplish the un-accomplishable---as far as effects are concerned. Especially for an amateur like me. That is, un-accomplishable unless you use a fancy Action that will upgrade your photo from drab to fab in a matter of seconds, as I witnessed with my own eyeballs. It was amazing. Nicole can also attest that my jaw hit the floor.
Though it's been a little of a moral dilemma for me (because a. I can be dramatic, and b. I'm surprisingly old-fashioned), I've come to realize that maybe I'm the only one not using Photoshop to my advantage, and that I need to get on the Actions train. You know, live a little. Have some fun. That's what technology is for, silly.
Here's question number one: Whether or not you create your own or if you have purchased someone else's, do you use Actions to get your photos looking the way you want them to?
Remember, it's just for the sake of curiosity. And fun. Truth or truth. Answer the question in the sidebar. And share some thoughts below.
