post processing pictures

i love photography. fell in love with it when i got my first digital camera last december 2004. too bad that camera was stolen from me. anyway. ever since, after taking pictures, i only do the following post processing to my photos, adjust the brightness, contrast or, levels.

as time goes by, i'm really happy that now, i only do very minimal post processing with the pictures that i took. some don't even need to be post processed. :p i appreciate good photos upon taking them more, compared to pictures that looked good after post processing.

but recently i've been looking for some post processing techniques, how they affect the final product of your photos. even in magazines, i believe most of the pictures are post processed. so i tried some of the articles and tutorials i got from the internet. first time i posted photo in my multiply photos that were post processed with a technique from a tutorial that i got online heheh! posted here the before and after photo..
