Cheerio, Old Chap!

I think I’ve watched a bit too many Downton Abbey episodes lately, what do y’all think? (I’m almost caught up, 2 more episodes to go… I hear that last one is a zinger…)

The little kids had a pre-lunch appetizer of milk and Cheerios the other day and I grabbed my camera because they had matching bowls and spoons and they were all coordinated with their jammies…. that you know… they were still wearing.  Plus the lighting was good and well, they are cute.

While I was editing these photos I got a message in my inbox that the new PicMonkey site was ready to go so I thought I would give it a spin. (thanks for the twitter heads-up on this new site, Galit!)

I usually edit my photos in Adobe Lightroom but sometimes I like a quicker, easier way to do it and with Picnik going away I was getting a little nervous.  Enter PicMonkey which is VERY similar to Picnik and extremely user friendly.

Here’s a little comparison for you…

The first photo was edited in lightroom and the second one was edited with PicMonkey.  I admit I did “tint” her eyes with a more blue color in the PicMonkey picture.  Other than the color being a little more blue tinged in the second one, I think they turned out pretty similar overall.

What do y’all think?
