Week 9: Filters

Here's another photo altered in Gimp. I used the Sparkle and Supernova filters on it. For the sparkle, I used the lasso tool and only selected the earring to add a little bling to that area.

I also used the layers and paintbrush technique to "dodge and burn" certain areas. The bottom of the couch was "burned" and I dodged parts of her face (the glisten on her lips and around her eyes). I was going for an ethereal effect. Another doctored photo to come after this, so check back!
