Being in this class doesn't change the way I view the photos online, yes it's easy to put anything online but it doesn't really matter to me. I don't go around looking for pictures and people don't send me photos of "cool" things so no I don't view photos differently. And you can usually tell when things are photoshopped because sometimes it's not fully edited. (:

I zoomed into the photo and used the polygon lasso tool with a a feather of 2 to make the background disappear. Once i finished this I moved the Kelly photo to a new canvas with a black and red background. I used curves on her picture to lighten it a bit. Then I duplicated the Kelly photo and went to hue and saturation to make the photo gray I changed the opacity to 54, I  went up to blur then Radical Blur to make the Kelly photo blur. I duplicated the layer and placed them on the other side.

I agree with Brian when he said Sarah doesn't have royalties because Sarah did give the poem to him as a gift so technically it belongs to him.  This all happened 10 years ago, so she should just let go and move on,  it's not like she wanted to be a songwriter anyways, because if she did believe in herself that much, she would have copyrighted her poems/songs.  If her passion is to do this for a living then she should just accept the offer Brain gave her and try to get her other songs out there.
