Before and After

I have a confession to make. It's pretty obvious that I have a passion for photography. But while I enjoy taking pictures, my true passion is for the editing process. I'm not sure why, but I get so excited when I see a gorgeous photograph come alive in a different way. Yesterday, my friend Becca, who has traveled to some pretty amazing places, emailed me several pictures from her journey, asking if I could edit them so she could frame them in her home. Instantly, I was stoked about the challenge. But I became even more excited when I saw the amazing photographs she had taken. Here are the before and afters of my three personal favorites. I've never been to California myself, but these turned out so great, I might just have to frame them in my home!!

Thanks again, Elizabeth, for your help with these pictures!! I can't pick just one as a favorite! I can't WAIT to put them up in my home!! Apparently I have a thing for bridges and sailboats?
Thanks so much!!!
ps - I'm honored that you put them on your blog :)
