K some of these are taken in direct sunlight so I cant change that. It was hell getting just basic settings down and I still know nothing about my camera really (just some basic iso setting stuff). Ben taught me a few things in January

So I took pics at my BIL's wedding just to practice and so they didnt have to pay someone. They were going to just have family use point and click pictures and I thought I might as well give them some at least higher resolution pictures even if they arent higher quality!

So I dont have photoshop, but did download GIMP. I dont have any idea how to use it and I"m not lookign to spend tons of time making these look pro-grade. They are free and just being given to BIL and SIL so its not something I need to spend hours on.

Just need some basic CC and tips on how to just freshen these up. I dont want to post this on the photography board cause they arent the same quality and even same purpose and my stuff is so elementary

They also HAD to be wearing light green shirts, in direct sunlight, in a green background, after being sunburned from a day of golf. So their face color, their shirts blend in already and the light... gah! The worst conditions ever I think

Some of these I played around with on basic Windows Photo that has "auto color" and thats it

Dont even ask what ISO I was on, it changed every 5 seconds going in and out of light and shade, or even aperture. Nothing stayed the same

I dont have down like "really cool compositions" as I call it, but I'm just getting light and shutter speed down, so give me some time!!
