Fun With Ye Olde Photoshoppe

I've been fucking around with Photoshop. It's quite an old version (Photoshop 6.0) that I nicked from my sister a few years ago, but it does the job. Have a gander at some of the edits I've made to a few of my recent photos:

This is the original
Changed to black and white and added noise
Mucked around with the colour saturation and hue
With extra lens flare added 
So yeah. Hardly award-winning shots or edits, but I'm learning new shit. Christ - I've had serious man-flu since Saturday morning and the amount of snot that's been dripping from my nose has to bee seen to be believed. It looks like the River Exe has burst it's banks on my face...and it hasn't stopped for 3 days - where the fuck is all the moisture coming from? By rights, I should look like a fucking prune right now with all the fluid that's exiting my body through my schnoz. Going for a run along Bournemouth beach in 70mph wind and lashing rain probably didn't help, but meh. I've been taking shit loads of medicine (at proper intervals, naturally), but nothing seems to be able to get rid of this damn headache, sore throat or streaming nose. I hate colds. I'm dripping snot on the keyboard now so I'm going to stop typing. Urgh.

How does man flu differ from the regular flu? Hmm... Also, remember clear snot means viral and yellow/green/brown bacterial infection! Get well & drink lots of fluids. Oh, & more pics!

Am I the only man who doesn't believe in man flu? You're either ill or you're not, right? And I agree with RealChicGeek- pretty cool pics there Tom. But no pics of the snot please. Oh, and whisky lemon and honey in a glass with hot water will clear you out.

Thanks for the comments people. I was planning a megapost about the weekend's activities, but my leaking nose and eyes prevented that. I'm into day four of this infernal bout of flu...It most definitely isn't 'man flu' anymore, and probably wasn't to begin with.
