It's been raining the whole week. What I hate about rainy days are traffic jams. My usual one-hour drive from home to office and vice-versa becomes three hour on the road on rainy days! Good thing, I always have my DSLR camera with me. So while I'm trapped in a Friday afternoon traffic, I decided to shoot some textures. Experimenting with my 50mm prime lens, I decided to capture some interesting rain and water drops on my windshield. So, here's the product of my experimentation: a set of high-resolution water drop backgrounds and textures. While other drivers are sitting idly behind the wheel, I was busy shooting these textures. I had fun and most of all, I didn't fall asleep while waiting for the traffic to move.

free photoshop alternatives

Let's face it. Spending half a thousand dollars just to brighten or crop an image is not an option. If you are a blogger, for example, who does not need some serious editing of your images, then buying Adobe's Photoshop program just to serve this purpose is not practical. I have been asked many times, if there is an alternative program for editing images that one can download for free. The answer is of course "yes" and a "lot". But not every image editing program out there is worth downloading. In this post, therefore, we decided to pick 15 excellent free (open source) programs that you can download or use for free. Most of these programs can actually perform the basic editing capabilities of Photoshop. Depending on what you need, please feel free to choose the right program for you.
