Are you guilty of deleting photos from your files readily? Why did you take those photos in the first place if you just readily delete them without even looking at them closer or giving them a second chance?
Oftentimes, most of us who use digital cameras readily delete photos from our digital file especially if we ran out of memory space. We delete photos that do not look good to us or are not super sharp. But wait, don’t delete that photo, you might still be able to use it. Who knows, you might even turn it into art. Huh? Turn a photo into art? You must be kidding!
No, I’m not kidding! Just take a look at what I have done to some of my photos. The original ones are photos that I was tempted to delete at first, but I gave them a second chance and discovered some surprising possibilities after I played around with them.
I used Photoshop here since it's the one I have on hand, but you can also use other photo-editing software.

Your Photos Deserve A Second Look
After taking pains to take some photos or to even create them, don't be so "delete happy" when at first you don't like them. At least upload them to your computer first and take a closer look.
Do the photos really belong to the trash or recycle bin? Can you not do something about them? If they are not super sharp, maybe they can be converted into painting-like photos that do not need super sharpness? Maybe they can be twisted here and there and given another life?
Check out what happened to some of my photos after I gave them a little twist or twirl. Maybe you can do the same to your photos? Give them a second life, they are crying for some attention!
Turn Your Photos Into Art
Open in Photoshop any image that you are not so happy about and play around with it first before you delete if at all. The steps are so easy, it is just ... playing. Who knows, you might find a gem still.
Just follow some of the steps I tried here.
