Editing

While I DO NOT approve of over-editing, there is always a use for editing software such as Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, iPhoto or any other software.  When you are looking at your photos before turning them in, feel welcome to use these for some simple editing, especially cropping and maybe adding brightness or darkness.  Those things are the most difficult to manage with a camera, especially when you don't know how to control all of your settings.  This can help take away small distractions so that when someone looks at your photo, all they see is what you wanted them to see.  Please DO NOT turn in photos with heavy photoshopping and filters.  If you took a photo with the intention that it should be black and white, that is acceptable.
