30 Day Photography Photoshop Design Challenge Rules:

Take a picture or two (or more) of the item on the list for that day for 30 days in a row.

Make fun artistic edits in Photoshop.  For extra practice with design, composition, color, and to find new things to do in the software that I may not know or do not use very often.

All pictures must have a minimum of 3 changes applied to them in Photoshop.

The total time must be within 30 minutes from taking the picture to finalizing the design and saving it as a jpg.

This was also to help me improve my ability to hone my design skills and creative ability on command.
There were a few days I did not like the design in the end and I reached my 30 minute limit, those are the days that are missing.  I like making mistake, because I can learn from them.  I also see them as a win.  This challenge was lots of fun and I am looking forward to my next personal challenge.

Thanks for checking out my project!
