As everyone knows. I am a big fan of Picasa 2 software for photo editing. I made a post recently about an Annie Leibovitz photograph of Queen Elizabeth the Second: “The Munster Queen.” In the post I wondered if that great photographer Annie Leibovitz had used Picasa2’s “Focal Black and White” feature to create her famous picture of the queen, seen below. I called it “Revenge of the Picasa 2 Nerds.

Then I took a snapshot of myself and rendered it artsy by using Picasa 2’s “Focal Black and White Effect”. If only I could have found a long black cape to don and a backdrop of a wild and gloomy English moor, I could have turned myself into a “Munster Queen” too. Here is my example:

And here are some posts by another blogger (I Used Picasa) who has created various tutorials explaining how to use many of the features that are included with Google’s free photo software, Picasa 2: “Hin’s Tech Corner.”
