About this item

Photographer and digital imaging expert Martin Evening's guiding philosophy when editing images is to ask, "What is the point? Does what I am doing enhance the picture, or is it just artifice for artifice's sake?" In Lightroom Transformations, Martin applies this approach to a broad collection of images, showing you how to turn ordinary-looking photos into hero shots - without using fancy montage techniques or wacky effects. By giving each image his own interpretation and explaining the rationale behind the choices he makes, he shows how you can do the same when processing your photos. Focusing primarily on techniques using Lightroom and Camera Raw - but also with Photoshop - Martin demonstrates how to manipulate the tones and composition of images to create photographs that correspond to your personal photographic vision.
