Picasa is Amazing

I'm currently very backlogged on posts about my adventures and unending complaints. I was going through some photos for a future post and I just need to say that Picasa (Google's image editing program) is fantastic.

I took this photo from an airplane:

...put it into Picasa, hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button, and got this:

It's amazing that Picasa can so easily make the image look that good.

Could I have done it myself manually? Sure, but I'm far too lazy for that right now.

Could my lovely wife fix the photo for me in less time and do an better job than I would have? Sure, but then I'd need to go all the way upstairs, and I'm far too lazy for that right now.

Do I hate it when people ask themselves questions and then answer them? Yes, it drives me insane, but that's a topic for another day.
