The Canon Magazine 47
Welcome...
PHOTOSHOP makes it
possible for us to create
head-turning images that
are simply impossible to
create in camera. This
month we kick off with a
project that shows you how
to use in-camera skills and
Photoshop in equal measure
to create the illusion that
your model is effortlessly
sitting atop a stack of chairs.
If you prefer to capture
everything in camera then
fear not! We have projects
showing you how to use an
infrared filter for sublime
monochromatic results, and
use a humble spoon to get
creative with reflections.
Drones have increased
in popularity over the last
decade, so we take a look
at some essential tips and
tricks that will take your
aerial shots to the next level.
For those that prefer to
get stuck into the editing, we
show you how to colourize
old pictures, use your free
Affinity brushes and how to
add texture files to pictures
in Photoshop Elements. So
pick one and get stuck in!CANON SKILLS
