Editing under/over expose picture

For those who are new to SLR will experience under/over expose a lot and many will just delete the under/over expose picture. I, myself wont simply delete any picture until I have seen it on a larger scale (19" monitor). From there on only will I decide to delete it or to keep it for editing purpose. I'm not a big fan of editing but on some picture (shown below) it is necessary to do so. lets see what we can do with under/over expose picture with only a few simple steps.

 This is the original picture

The rest are done with only 2-3 steps from photoscape and even picture manager.

Cameron Valley Tea House

Cameron continued. Apart from fruits and veggies, we can also find lots of tea planted in Cameron Highlands. The all and famous tea can be tasted here freshly brew from fresh tea leaves picked on a daily basis. It would be a great evening having tea here with a picturesque scenery to be gazed upon, but an evening tea would not be complete without having some snacks to chew on. Well at Cameron Valley Tea House you can get snacks like pastry puff, muffin, and best of all are its scones.

Look out for this Tea House when u visit Cameron Highlands
