I have a friend with very lovely face and very pretty eyes. When we were doing our masters, she was about to get married and like most of the other eastern girls, very excited about the prospect of being a bride.She kept on talking about the beauty tips she was going to apply, and about the dresses and other stuff she was buying or about to buy for her wedding.
At last the day came and we saw her in her bright red and gold bridal outfit. Of course, she was looking extremely pretty like a fairy queen, so everyone praised and complemented. Instead of glasses, she was wearing light brown contact lenses which were looking gorgeous on her fair skin. She and the rest of her family members were looking perfectly happy and satisfied with themselves because everything in the wedding took place perfectly well.
After two weeks, when I went to see her , she told me that there was something wrong with her wedding photos. She dropped the big and heavy photo album on my lap. As soon as I opened the album I understood what was the wrong. As I have mentioned earlier that instead of glasses she wore contact lenses at her wedding and was looking gorgeous, but in the photographs her lenses against the flash light creating very bad effects and her eyes were looking more like a cat's eyes than hers.
She was not at all happy with the photographer's performance and wanted to look in photographs too, as beautiful as she was looking in reality. Luckily I had the solution.
I asked her if I could take those pictures for editing. Further I explained that how easily could all those pictures be edited flawlessly within a couple of hours. She agreed and then handed me a potable USB device containing all those pictures.After a few days I handed her USB device back to her with the addition of a new folder in it that was containing all edited images of hers.
When she saw the result of my two days toil, she couldn't believe upon her eyes. ' That's amazing.....!' , she exclaimed, ' how did you do that?' And the answer was simple.
I had already had adobe Photoshop 7.0 installed in my computer.I simply inserted the USB device in the port and copied the folder containing Sara's (my friend's) wedding photos and pasted it on my computer's desktop. Then I removed the device and put it aside.
As soon as I typed the word desktop in the bar, all desktop items appeared in the window. I selected my required folder and clicked the button called Open .
When I put the pointer of my mouse at the arrow that could be seen at the bottom- right of the option Lasso Tool and clicked the left button of my mouse, the sub-menu of Lasso Tool appeared.
I typed the name of my friend's newly edited image in the file name box then selected the format jpeg out of the format drop down menu and clicked the button save .One by one, I edited all the pictures by the same method and everyone liked them.
