Using the image as a starting point, the author aims to show us in easy steps how the image was taken, enhanced on the computer and output in the desired form. The language aims to be non-technical, with easy-to-use captions, diagrams and screen-grabs, making it possible for us to immediately start using digital photography. Digital cameras, scanners and printers are all discussed so that we can understand the basic tools of the trade and how they differ from what we are used to. Then the versatility of the computer is looked at, from adjusting brightness and contrast, sharpening a slightly out-of-focus image, removing scratches, adding and removing colour and many other amazing effects. Lastly the printing or emailing of the image is examined, as well as adding text, mounts and other options.

New. 2884790071. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-BRAND NEW, FLAWLESS COPY, NEVER OPENED--128 pages--DESCRIPTION: For over 150 years, the photographic process remained virtually unchanged-but now, the digital revolution has come. Are you up to date...or behind the times? Magnificent examples from digital photographers will help you understand how the new electronic media work and how to grasp all their creative possibilities. The key: the cycle of shoot, enhance, and share. Shooting involves everything about how the image is captured, from camera, lenses, and equipment to scanning and composition. Enhance that picture by altering its brightness and contrast, enriching the color, and improving its clarity and depth. Retouch, tone, and colorize monochrome images, and use layered montage techniques to add extra interest. Try special effects that make photos look like watercolors or turn them into panoramas. Once you've got that perfect picture, share it with others: print it, add text, put it on the net. You'll find everything a beginner needs to become knowledgeable and inspired! --with a bonus offer--
