It is a real cost saver when you can edit your pictures after you have taken them. It was always a hold your breath hit and misses way of taking pictures with standard cameras. Having said that there is still a place for those old faithful cameras in the world of photography.
Digital photography is a wonderful way to teach a youngster about catching memories for life. There is no real problem with the significant errors they will make in the beginning. As time goes on, they will take great pride in their work and hopefully have many happy hours at a great pastime.
One of the most significant ways you can help them achieve the goals they want is by teaching them how to edit the pictures so the can be printed.
Item #1: There are many free versions of photo editing software on the internet. Chose one that you feel is relatively simple and easy to use. This way you will be able to teach that novice photographer how to do their own editing. There are great programs such as Photoshop and Paint Shop pro, which can be purchased if anyone wants to become more advanced in their photography editing techniques.
Item #2: You are going to need some photos to work on. Either these can be downloaded from the digital camera or they can be scanned. Either way they can be edited readily. Unless they are perfect, you should not settle for less than best and do some type of editing at least.
Item #3 Now its time to edit. The decision here is what needs to be fixed in your opinion. Perhaps you want to cut out a lot of the useless stuff that got into your photo, so you do this by cropping it. Then you can sharper the color and contrast if you feel it necessary.
