I'm cheap I own Photoshop Elements 8 & 9. I find PSE 9 with proper layer masks does what I want to. For portrait work I also use Portrait Professional with PSE 9. I am an amateur not a PRO. You get enhancements obviously with CS6 which I think most Pros and many amateurs use but I don't need them. If I was spending more money I'd probably but Adobe Lightroom.
As for Corel ????????
Oh the Distort stuff comes with PSE.
ICit2lol, what you said about the birds says one thing t me "it's all relative". how do we know that we all see the color red as red and not blue and have been taught to call it red. If you look at objects under colored light the objects colors change so there is no absolute fact, it's all relative.
Hum netadict my point in as nutshell. Plus you also have to remember that some species see things in black and white only - or so we are led to believe.
A bit OT but you can say the same thing about time too it is only what one conceives themselves or any life form conceives as time - a theory that defies any explanation or logic really. What is even more fascinating is that we measure something that is infinite - necessary and bizarre at the same "time"
Funny that you mention Time. Just finished Brian Greene's book "The Fabric of the Cosmos: Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality". Quite interesting and informative, especially his "take" on time. We live in a strange universe.
Looks like a outline of a mans face with a real mans face looking to the side yet looking at you.
Hum indianacarnie haven't read a book for ages - well only texts I have to for work and not this one - wish I had the time (no pun) to actually as you have got me intrigued now.
Yep and it gets stranger each day and well one could debate this all day but I think we have got a bit - well a lot OT on this one LOL!! I would welcome you aboard the TARDIS but it's standing room only at the moment
