With digital technology you can take complete control of your own prized shots - there is now a huge window of opportunity open to anyone who wants to decide exactly how their final photo looks. Step-by-Step Digital Photo Retouching is not just about getting rid of dust and scratches, but also about removing unwanted elements from photographs, adding items, changing positions, distorting images, and so on.

The book begins with an overview of the applications you’ll be using, and all the basic information that you’ll need in order to get started. It then looks at simple corrections, before going in-depth into more advanced manipulation techniques. Simple-to-follow projects take you through the methods and help you to build up your knowledge and skills. By the time you’ve finished reading Step-by-Step Digital Photo Retouching, you’ll know everything you need to enable you to make perfect pictures.
