Messing around with Photoshop

I spent a lot of money getting the real CS4 package and it dawned on me today that I still don't know much more about using it than I did when I got it.......

So, I've been having a little mess around with Photoshop tonight. I tried out 'lens blur' which I had never done before, which I think you would only need a little of, unless you wanted an image completely out of focus. I really like the 'lofi look' and so I increased the level of red in the image to give it warmth and added noise to give it that grainy old camera look. Instead of over exposing the image I just saturated it with more colour, heightened contrast and increased lightness.
