Before
After a couple of workshops and tutorials on Photoshop I have learn quite a bit about how to properly edit images. There times in which when Photoshop is used, and the picture looks a bit too cartoonish for my taste. A little tweaking here and there isn’t a crime but when it is overly use, I am no big fan of it. Here I have posted pictures I have taken recently and edited. Practice makes perfect! I will keep practicing until I hit my goal. =)

Summer is approaching and I cannot wait! Since it was such a nice day yesterday, one of my good friends, Beatriz and I decided to take a stroll by Central Park. We started off in 89th & Broadway, and some how ended up in Pinkberry on 81st and 2nd avenue. I took a couple of shots (well not a couple a lot. I even ran out of memory space). We had so much fun! I can't wait for summer to make it's debut this year so that I can take out Gabby more often. Yes, Gabby! I have named my camera Gabby. I think is a shutterbug thing. LOL
I love this time of year! The weather is just perfect and the flowers are in full bloom. Yesterday on my way home from work I came across this beautiful community garden on Manhattan's Westside. I thought to myself "I have to come take some shots as soon as possible". It turns out that I could not wait more than a day, so I decided to go on my lunch break today and explore. I also wanted to get some practice shots. Even though the lighting in some spots was too intense I still managed to get some very beautiful pictures.

Hello there!
Today is a special day for all mothers. It is Mother's Day! Even though I must say that mother's day should be celebrated 365 days of the year. A mother is someone very special. Whether your mom is close by, far away, or isn't around at all, you must always keep her in your thoughts as well as your heart. A mother’s love is unconditional. A mother is like a rare jewel. All may want it but only a few get to cherish it.
Three wonderful women raised me. My mom and my grandmothers are all great influences in my life. They are there in my good times and my bad times. Whether I am happy or sad, I can always count on them. Many times we might not appreciate what they have done for us. I would like to wish them all a Happy Mother’s Day!
I love my mommy & my grandmas and I miss them all. I wish we can all be together today but they are all far away.
