Adobe (R) Photoshop (R) Master Class

For any course in Photography, Computer Graphics, Digital Imaging, or Visual Communications that uses Adobe Photoshop.

The personal vision of internationally recognized fine-art photographer John Paul Caponigro serves as the focal point of this book. Students gain insight into Caponigro's creative process and learn how Photoshop can help them develop their own aesthetic and craft. By showcasing his work and carefully explaining the steps he took to produce it, the author provides insight into both his creative method and his Photoshop techniques. Each chapter in this elegantly designed, four-color book is organized around a specific visual theme (atmospheric perspective, selective focus, and split-toned or subdued-color images, for example). Chapters begin with an introduction to the visual concept followed by a step-by-step illustration of the process leading to its realization. This book is a visual treat and an inspiration.
