Wrapping Up

I hope the projects in this chapter inspire you to read on and to play with your digital darkroom even more. Past that, I hope they inspire you to get out and shoot some photos with which you can have fun.

As you shoot more material to play with in your digital darkroom, think of some of the possible uses for the photos outside of their immediate and obvious subjects. For example, you might be tempted to use long cat hair instead of human hair for a hair transplant. I've seen some gorgeous mustaches on some of the cats in the neighborhood. Hmmm, I think I'll get my camera and go for a walk.

Before I do, though, I'd like to interest you in our daily "next chapter" special. You'll laugh, you'll cry…no, wait, that will be the sobs of your victims after they see the work you've done on their digital portraits. You might still be laughing, however. Now go take some photos and I'll meet you at the next chapter when you're done.
