Ph0toshop CS3 Restoration and Retouching Bible/by Mark Fitzgerald (Author)

Description
The Ph0toshop CS3 Restoration and Retouching Bible is a full-color comprehensive reference to retouching and restoring ph0tographs using Adobe Ph0toshop CS3. Written by an Adobe Certified Expert and Adobe Certified Instructor in Ph0toshop CS & CS2, Mark Fitzgerald, the Ph0toshop CS3 Restoration and Retouching Bible provides training, tips, and techniques for amateur to professional ph0tographers who want to complete expert quality ph0to restorations and retouchings. The book begins by reviewing the fundamentals of working with digital images - covering adjusting image brightness and contrast, working with color, understanding RAW and high-bit files, working with layers, and getting organized. Fitzgerald guides readers through all of the relevant Ph0toshop tools and techniques including a full chapter on creating flexibility with layer masks. A robust four-chapter section on rescuing damaged ph0tos enables readers to bring their damaged images back to life. The final section of the book focuses on adding the final touches to images - retouching, with hands-on examples of retouching portraits and architectural projects.
