Manipulating the Image

A beginner's guide to digital photography. Following on from "Capturing the Image", Joe Farace takes us through perhaps the most exciting stage of digital photography, manipulating the image. The book covers every area including image editing software, enhancing the image, plug-ins, photoshop actions, image manipulation and the Web, creating art from your images and image storage media. While everyone is aware of the advantages of being able to "play" with images and send them via the Internet, understanding how is another matter. This book explains everything the amateur needs to know using jargon-free text, diagrams and the images themselves.
