adapt!

My dear friend Michelle gave me a great idea in her comment 

on yesterday's moon post.

She said the photos kind of took on a painted look.

So, I took one of the images to Photoshop and

applied "Filters." Several of them, as a matter of fact.

One of the best things I have learned in my life is

how to adapt.  (Got lemons?  Photoshop them!   ;o} )

Photoshop mystifies me.  I like fooling around with "Filters"

but basically have no idea what I am doing.

I just fiddle until I like what I see better than I liked the original.

If you asked me to take the original and re-do what I made above,

I couldn't do it if my life depended on it.

I have seen someone work with 'Layers' and I really aim

to learn how to use them.

Some day when I have a few hours of uninterrupted time, that is.

That kind of time doesn't come easy around here.

So, what do you think, good people?

How have you adapted when things didn't go as you planned??
