How to Wow or Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Administrators Companion

How to Wow: Photoshop CS3 for Photography

Author: Jack Davis

Geared exclusively toward photographers (and the photographically addicted) using Photoshop, this book’s simple step-by-step instructions help readers create elegant solutions.  Just like a favorite cookbook—the ones with short, clear-cut instructions and mouth-watering results—this book identifies challenges, provides simple recipes for overcoming them, and shows what’s possible. Readers will find recipes for dealing with common workflow problems (working with Raw files en mass, color correction, dodging and burning, and retouching), and they'll learn the exciting photo-enhancing techniques that can give their work that extra wow factor: tinting, softening, collaging, you name it! Along the way they'll get readers up to speed on all of Photoshop CS3's newest, snazziest, and mind-bogglingly useful tools and accoutrements, such as the completely overhauled Adobe Bridge and Camera Raw 4, Smart Filters and Adjustments, black-and-white conversions, Auto Align and Blend, and much, much more.
