When you’re shooting portraits, the soft background look keeps distracting backgrounds from ruining a shot. If you’ve not shot correctly, here’s a quick, simple tip to pop out your foreground and keep the most important parts the most visible. Softening Backgrounds Using Photoshop (GIMP Friendly How-To) Sometimes you get a shot that doesn’t work as well as you would like. When this example shot was taken, the subject came out great (if you don’t understand why, you know even less than your author about Star Trek), but the background didn’t add anything to the shot, and it was too late to go back and retake the image with a telephoto lens to get a nice, soft background....

There are rules that modern horror movie villains tend to live by. They work alone, usually, and if they do form groups they’re usually pretty small. They can be outsmarted, usually because they’re either not terribly bright or overly self-confident.

They can have an agenda, but usually a strictly personal one - and if they do have an ideology behind what they’re up to it’s usually a fictional one or a metaphor, i....
