Mastering Advanced Photoshop Techniques

"Mastering Advanced Photoshop Techniques for Professional Photography" explores every stage of the digital workflow. This book shows how the tools, filters, dialogs, and processes in Photoshop can be applied subtly and professionally to create superb prints and digital images for a wide range of applications within every major photographic genre. Included will be the creation of exhibition-quality prints (such as extreme enlargements that maintain the definition, color contrast, detail, and tonal qualities of smaller reproductions); preparing images for print; outputting images onto a variety of different materials; how to add watermarks and other security measures; and how to maximize and retain quality throughout. This book forms a unique, creative, and technical bridge between the creative possibilities of photography and the technology resources needed to turn inspiration into professional results.
