The Photoshop Elements 15 book for digital photographers

Scott Kelby

Book - 2017

This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that's never been done before it cuts through the bull and shows you exactly how to do it. It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. This book gives you the inside tips and tricks of the trade for organizing, correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and printing your photos like a pro. You'll be amazed at how easy and effective these techniques are once you know the secrets. Each year Scott trains thousands of digital photographers and, almost without exception, they have the same questio...ns and face the same problems that's exactly what he covers in this book. You ll learn: . How to unlock the power of layers (you ll be amazed at how easy it is!) . How to use Camera Raw for processing not only RAW photos, but JPEGs, TIFFs, and PSDs too! The sharpening techniques the pros really use. How to deal with common digital camera image problems, including brightening people in dark shadows and getting the best color possible. The most requested photographic special effects, and much more! Although Elements 15 offers some digital photography features that Photoshop CC doesn't offer, there are plenty of features that Photoshop CC has that Elements 15 doesn't (like channels, HDR, etc.). In this book, you'll learn some slick work arounds, cheats, and fairly ingenious ways to replicate many of those Photo shop features right within Elements. Since this book is designed for photographers, it doesn't waste your time talking about what a pixel is, how to frame a shot or set your exposure, etc., and there's no talk about which camera or printer to buy. It's all Elements, step by step, cover to cover-- more
