Photography And Your Digital World The Ultimate Guide to Digital Technology Book

Following the highly successful Digital Photography Manual, the complementary Photography and Your Digital World concentrates on image-editing and image manipulation, to provide a complete resource aimed at all levels of expertise. Highly practical with a results-oriented approach, the book looks at image creation from both a photographic and artistic viewpoint. The creation of images is examined holistically—all the components of the process, including the original image, the software tools and the user's skill and creativity are examined and seen to contribute to the end result. Techniques and effects are given in the context of producing exemplary results, and creative solutions are presented for typical imaging problems. Taking a generic approach to software packages wherever possible, the low emphasis on individual software packages will prevent this title from dating quickly, allowing it to retain credibility as new software is developed.
