Edit My Photo January 2022 - Elijah
Feb 17, 2022With Charlotte Reeves
Elijah was the winner of this month’s Edit My Photo challenge with his classic interpretation of a backlit image of Zephyr.
As the winner of the challenge, Elijah submitted this image of two dogs on a hillside. The image is a little underexposed and needs some work to clean up the dogs, improve the image quality, and come up with a crop that works.
