With the advent of DSLR cameras, picture taking has gone to absurdly high levels. People everywhere are taking pictures like crazy on their DSLR cameras. The popular ones are Canon, Nikon, and Olympus.

But there is one problem though. Taking pictures is easy, editing the pictures is not.

While DSLR cameras give top-quality pictures, they don’t ensure beautiful pictures, especially for untrained people. Clicking photos is one thing and making them beautiful is another.

This is why we have picture editing software like Photoshop. But they are very expensive photo editing software that is not affordable by amateurs.
