Go Greener

Kermit the Frog said, “It’s not easy being green.” How you interpret his statement can be far and wide from what someone else ascertains. If you ask me, which no one did but it’s my blog so I’ll do what I want, Kermit is referring to the lack of proper exposure of his green skin. In an effort to help educate moms, dad, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces, cousins, and cousinettes I’m going to demonstrate a super easy way to enhance greens.

I call it, Mr. Foliage Scene Mode. Generally this setting is represented by a leafy icon as shown between the previous sentence and this one which I’m typing right now.

Lettuce look at some samples that have not been altered.

This photo was taken using Auto Mode with a Canon PowerShot SX100 IS.

I changed my setting to implement the Foliage Scene option for the above shot.

Moving right along I grabbed another picture of the China pavilion at Epcot once again setting the dial to Auto.

The same scenery but with the camera set to the Foliage Scene mode.

Did you notice that not only did the Foliage setting make the greens brighter and bolder but it also accentuated the reds and yellows? There’s more contrast in the pictures taken with the Foliage setting as well. Just look at those gorgeous gray rocks with white highlights!

Written while listening to myself laugh at my own jokes. I made myself snort.
