Description

In this two-day workshop you will learn how to unleash the power of Adobe Photoshop Elements to retouch and enhance your digital pictures, whether they’re fresh from your digital camera or scans of treasured prints from your family photo album. On day one we review the basics, including cropping, removing red-eye, and correcting color, exposure, and focus. On day two we explore more advanced topics, including using layers, applying the Clone and Healing tools to cover up photo flaws, and combining photos to create scrapbook pages, digital collages, and other photo projects. Along the way, you'll be introduced to important digital-imaging concepts such as pixels, resolution, and file formats; find out how to organize and archive your images; and learn the best ways to prepare pictures for print and online sharing.
