This is one of the earliest photos I have taken for school. I knew nothing then of macro modes, ISO, or, really…anything. I focused on the sprout, then shifted my camera left to get this shot.
New Life – Partial Cut Out
I partially cut out out this image using a combination of Photoshop CS6’s quick selection brush and the lasso tool, then I inverted the selection, deleted the pixels I didn’t want, and refined the edges.

Shot in Automatic mode, no edits.
Christmas Orange – Full Cut Out
I was able to use the polygonal lasso tool due to the box’s clean straight edges, then I cleaned up the selection with Photoshop Elements 7’s selection brush.
