Picasa

Picasa is very underrated IMHO> You get it as part of the google pack and is a wonderful quick fix for novices

In Picasa you can crop, alter exposure and colour, get rid of red eye, you can increase shadows, shrpen, blur and various other things You can straighten pics as well ..wobbly horizons are NOT good

It is a very simple programme but have a play with it and you might be surprised
