Shadows may be spoiling the picture etc. So in order to correct this, you can use a photo editing software and touch up these levels. A dull picture can be improved be adjusting exposure levels, 'straightening' sets right a crooked photo, cropping ensures background mess is removed and some softwares allow you to adjust the shadows too. Adobe Photoshop is a very good software for all this but it is intended for graphic designers so while it's capabilities are extensive, it is not user friendly. There are many easier photo editing applications that are free. Picasa is my favorite. <br />All the best!Itsy Bitsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432099715923490815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013558697216881568.post-64848515127713388502012-10-28T09:46:52.396+05:302012-10-28T09:46:52.396+05:30Happy you found it useful Narmadhaa!Happy you found it useful Narmadhaa!Itsy Bitsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432099715923490815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013558697216881568.post-56960444984737311432012-10-28T08:40:08.175+05:302012-10-28T08:40:08.175+05:30thank you Sunehra for such an informative tips.......thank you Sunehra for such an informative tips....good help for new comers like me...i was having problem with photograph....and if u can explain photo touch up in details i would be highly obliged .Daksha Popathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830519444160702405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013558697216881568.post-52903927975072239982012-10-23T18:40:43.232+05:302012-10-23T18:40:43.232+05:30Thank you for such an informative post....it would...Thank you for such an informative post....it would really help new comers like me to fix our perspectives...<br />Narmadhaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13666282457232853725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013558697216881568.post-41128604874569561032012-10-23T14:01:35.151+05:302012-10-23T14:01:35.151+05:30I have been visiting various blogs for my Remove ...I have been visiting various blogs for my <a href="http://%20byeground.com" rel="nofollow"> Remove Background </a> research.
