Here I will briefly cover how to make a good snap out of an ordinary looking and possibly defective one; with the two most basic techniques i.e., cropping and colouring the images, to get a better effect.
This snap is the front view of Schonbrunn Palace, Vienna. The picture has a vast empty field as foreground, and enough sky on top to balance the scenery. Though reasonably good, the overall effect can be modified with cropping-out the empty sections.


First the image has been closely cropped to exclude the unattractive foreground, leaving only the building and just enough of the green grass in front. Once done, with help of Kodak Easy Share, the image has been applied sunset effect multiple times (three times).
The end-result is quite different and far more pleasant than the original one.
So, anytime you feel that a snap is simply not good enough, try applying cropping and coloring; and the result can be something beyond your imagination.
!!! Always keep a copy of the original photograph. !!!
