NIK Software

I downloaded the Color Efex Pro 3.0 Photoshop plug-in in my computer today and I would call it the lazy person's best tool to get cool photo effects (PERFECT for me!). The software provides 52 different photo filters and claims to generate 250 different effects. I found it very easy to use (and it must be very easy because I am not the type that would try hard to figure things out). -- Stella

Sunset

I was jogging in my neighborhood and was amazed by the view of the sunset. Also, there were a lot of geese flying to the south. -Feli
