About this item
Scott Kelby, the worlds #1 best-selling photography technique books author, is here with an entirely new concept in Photoshop books - one thats designed from the ground up to get you straight to whatever it is you need to do in Photoshop right now, get your answer fast, and get you back to editing your images in Photoshop.
Thanks to Adobes incredibly popular Creative Cloud Photography plan, which includes Photoshop and Lightroom, photographers are extending the depth and power of Lightroom by jumping over to Photoshop to do all those things Lightroom just cant do (or Lightroom can do, but in Photoshop, its faster and easier, or the results are just better) . Because Photoshop has so much power and depth, sometimes the things you need are ... well ... kinda hidden or not really obvious. There will be a lot of times when you need to get something done in Photoshop, and you know Photoshop can do it (because Photoshop can do just about anything) , but you have no idea where Adobe hid that feature, or what the "secret handshake" is to do that thing you need now so you can get back to working on your images. Thats why this book was created: to quickly get you to the technique, the shortcut, the setting, or exactly the right thing you need to do right now.
Heres how it works: When you need to know how to do a particular thing, you turn to the chapter where it would be found (Layers, Printing, Fixing Problems, Special Effects, etc.) , find the thing you need to do (its easy, each page covers just one single topic) , and Scott tells you exactly how to do it just like he was sitting there beside you, using the same casual style as if he were telling a friend. That way, you get back to editing your images fast.
This isnt a book of theory, full of confusing jargon and detailed multi-step concepts. This is a book on which button to click, which setting to use, and exactly how and when to use it, so youre never "stuck" in Photoshop again. This will be your "go to" book that sits within reach any time youre working in Photoshop. With this book, help is right at your fingertips.
