Elements
T
he technology in digital cameras these days is pretty
impressive, but no matter how small or how fast or
how capable modern cameras have become they
still lack one essential element of photography:intelligence. Only you know how you want your pictures to look,
and often, poor lighting, dull weather or other factors beyond your
control can prevent you from making the images you wanted. To
take control of the image-making process you need some form of
editing software that offers a broad range of tools for making
precise adjustments to tweak and enhance your images.
While often regarded as the younger sibling to Adobe’s flagship
Photoshop CC software, Photoshop Elements is remarkably
powerful, and offers photographers a phenomenal amount of
control over the photo-editing process. As you’ll discover over
the 200+ pages of this book, this is the most in-depth guide
available to mastering this latest version of the popular
software. This latest edition includes the exciting new features
in Photoshop Elements 14, such as Shake Reduction and Haze
Removal. However, this handbook will help you to get to grips
with the essentials of this powerful program, whatever version of
Photoshop Elements you happen to be using.
We’ll start you off with introductions to Elements’ different
workspaces, then work our way through classic editing steps every
photographer should know, advanced edits, essential tricks, how
to use Elements’ Camera Raw editor, and finally, we suggest a
handful of fun photo projects that incorporate using what you’ve
learnt in Elements. And don’t forget our 12 expert tutorial videos
