An excellent guide Photoshop CS: the art of shooting Centerfold
A couple of months ago, I almost did not use PhotoShop for photo editing – all somehow missed LightRoom’a. But after shooting a wedding, I made sure that Photoshop is a must at times and, therefore, need to learn to use it.
Where to start? Pile of books, both printed and electronic. What to choose?
recently discovered on the network on a torrent, the book “K. Ames. Adobe Photoshop CS: the art of shooting Centerfold. ” The book very much, probably buy the print version, although I note the excellent quality is the electronic version of the book. After all, almost 300 MB!
So, go through the annotations …
This book focuses on post-processing of digital photos centerfold with the most popular graphic editor – Adobe Photoshop CS. The book is divided into two parts.
In the first part, devoted to the organization of the work process, the author, a famous professional photographer working in advertising photography, tells about the advantages of imaging with high color depth, the role of light and the rules of its use in photography.
Initially I thought that would be a story about how to use light in the photo – what it is, how and when to which tools are … But in fact the head is short and only a basic knowledge. Okay, let’s see what’s next …
Then I will cover such topics as the backup of original images and create images for a preview.
Well, I do not need it – I have a RAW and LightRoom
Heads of the second part of the book are devoted to practical projects, such as giving women in the photo “puppet” of the form, creating composite images, photo retouching models, convert color images to grayscale.
That’s what you need personally to me the most! Description of the most basic techniques for retouching portraits. There are many examples, all is well painted. In general, for beginners very well.
Total – for those looking for guidance on retouching, I think it should be paid close attention to this book!
