DIGITAL MANIPULATION BASICS

Digital Manipulation Basics is your pocket-sized introduction to the fun aspects of digital image manipulation. Les Meehan leads you through a series of projects on how to create striking images. Each step in the process is illustrated in colour with clear step-by-step instructions, including screen grabs and helpful diagrams. Part 1 shows you how to handle the most common faults in photography: fixing exposure problems, adding sparkle to contrast and removing red eye and unwanted objects. Part 2 explores the wealth of creative and fun techniques for enhancing pictures, including working with layers and filters, making panoramas and photomontages, creating surrealist art, adding frames and text. Part 3 looks at how to use your images: printing and framing, multimedia albums, optimizing pictures for the internet, emailing images and designing greeting cards.
