Description

Adobe Photoshop offers tools for eliminating almost any photographic flaw, from soft focus to distracting background elements, and this workshop teaches you how to get the best retouching results in the fastest time possible. The workshop begins with a look at the selection process, which is the key to making seamless alterations to your pictures. Then you’ll learn how to crop images, manipulate exposure and focus, tweak colors, correct convergence, and cover up unwanted objects in the frame. You’ll also learn the basics of portrait enhancement: making eyes sparkle, whitening teeth, removing blemishes, and softening wrinkles. Along the way, Photoshop expert Julie King offers tips for controlling color accuracy, preparing photos for output, and handling other daily tasks in the digital darkroom.
