what kind of editing do you do on your photographs? i love it, keeps the photo pure and not too edited, but accentuates the nice lighting, etc. please share!
Thank you! I’ll try to make some sort of tutorial sometime showing you! I usually adjust the levels, contrast, and sometimes saturation of the photos. I then add a new layer, fill it in with a deep blue or navy. On the layer palette in photoshop I then select ‘exclusion’ from the drop down list and adjust the opacity. Sorry if that doesn’t make any sense, haha! I’ll definitely try to make an actual tutorial sometime!

ethnomusicology? what are you majoring in? what kind of jobs are available?
I’m majoring in Spanish and minoring in Ethnomusicology! I’m not 100% sure about what kind of jobs will be available for me, but I was just accepted to intern at a world music publicity firm! I’m pretty excited about that sort of option. As for Spanish, there are really an endless amount of possibilities in the job market, it just depends on what I want to do with it.
