Guest		13-Mar-2005 12:31
Isabel you're very good at PS work..I need a lot more practice..this is such an interesting gallery..

Ron Asp		09-Mar-2005 14:59
Isabel, Nice work you have done on Photoshop and with excellent photography. The sky is the limit of what a person can do. Just a thought...If you go on ebay you can buy a 7 cd course on Photoshop at a great price..Check out their web site at www.howtogurus.com I bought there photoshop cs version. It also pertains to the past photoshop softwares. If you happen to get the chance you will see alot of my photos have been worked on photoshop cs. Have a nice day...Ron

Guest		16-Dec-2004 14:05
Hello Isabel, You're quite good at Photoshop. I bought Photoshop Elements a few months ago but haven't had the time to learn it and practice using it too much yet. I especially like the way you show the photos before and after using the techniques, showing exactly what it can do. Great work! Mark

Guest		07-Nov-2003 14:57
As someone who is just about to get into PhotoShop, I really appreciated your posting these photos. Thanks

Dave		29-Jun-2003 16:28
Isabel, Just have to say thank you for sharing these techniques. I can read books and practice on my images, but to see what more experienced photographers do really, really helps. I have perused you other galleries and enjoyed spending time there. Thanks. Dave
