Basic Editing with
Photoshop Elements
and iPhoto
This chapter introduces two common, easy-to-learn image editing appli-
cations for today’s new digital photographers: Adobe’s Photoshop
Elements 2 and Apple’s iPhoto. Elements is much more powerful than
iPhoto, but the latter is much better at organizing images on your com-
puter. Both are excellent programs for importing, storyboarding, organ-
izing, and printing your images.
You don’t need Photoshop to manage your images unless you plan to
make a career as a photographer, writer, Web developer, or graphic
artist. As the industry standard, Photoshop includes numerous features
that you will never need, such as offset printing and registration tools,
Web development and animated GIF tools, and color profiles and modes
such as CMYK.
