Playing with the new photo viewing program

I purchased ACDSee with PhotoMover earlier today and was working with it tonight. I now have it set as my default capture utility to move photos from my camera to the correct folder on the hard drive. I removed the one that came with the camera to avoid conflicts.

After gettting all that to work, I noticed a selection tool, so I dragged it out on one of the images and then copied that section to the clipboard. I opened PHotoshop and created a new document to paste into. That worked perfectly. I then ran the BuzzPro filters on part of the image. It came out pretty nice. The moose was one that hung around in the yard last year.

I also see a screen capture utility built into this software, with a check box to include the cursor if desired.

Looks like a nice program.

This is the same image. I adjusted a couple of settings. The other one is a bit more moody, while the one on the bottom would probably read better as a sihouette image against the trees, if used on a sign.

This one is a combination of the two.
