Description
Create, correct, and control with layers,
the most powerful tool in Photoshop and Photoshop Elements
Imagine yourself
in total control of every adjustment to your photos. You've seen the illustrations in glossy magazines, the fine art reproductions in
museum catalogs, the award-winning pictures of professional photographers. To produce this kind of magic, understanding how to use layers
for your entire breadth of image correction is key.
Discover the best ways to showcase your talent with the full power of layers from
best-selling author/digital image specialist Richard Lynch. Learn what layers can do for you as an integral part of organizing image
development, creating and storing image versions with nondestructive editing, and promoting a positive workflow.
Timeless, not version
specific, this book will help you take layers to a new level to increase your efficiency and produce better end results, whatever release
of the software you use. Step-by-step instructions and practical examples illustrate how to?
Don't make your work harder than it needs
to be when you can use layers to control any adjustment using multiple forms of blending concurrently – transparency, clipping, opacity/fill,
masking, modes, channel targeting, Blend If, and styles.
