Product Description
If you're exploring a career in digital imaging or design, then you're likely to encounter Photoshop along the way--you probably already have. But how well do you know it? Understanding Adobe Photoshop: Digital Image Concepts and Techniques goes beyond the school newspaper or internship and teaches you the fundamental digital imaging techniques in Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements that you'll need to succeed both in the classroom and the workforce. While many Photoshop books focus on features, tools, or techniques, this book covers both the basics and delves into specific skills, tricks, and uses in multimedia. With a friendly style and interactive DVD-ROM, Richard Harrington covers digital imaging basics (correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and presenting photos) and shows you real-world projects and exercises, including: digital painting; designing a CD/DVD label, magazine cover, and advertisements; creating Web sites/animations; and more!

4 out of 5 stars Makes the investment in Photoshop pay off   October 12, 2008
Anne (CTWD Arizona)
Even having taken a class in PS it's easy to forget many of its features. This author puts that creativity right at your finger tips. I recommend Richard Harrington's book.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent coverage of the basics of Photoshop   November 26, 2007
Kenneth J. Hoerricks (Canoga Park, Ca United States)
As an instructor, it is helpful to have a book like this available as a reference for my students. Each topic is well presented and the included DVD is a great bonus.

This one is on my must have list.

5 out of 5 stars Understanding Photoshop ... exactly   November 7, 2007

This is by far the best Photoshop book I have come across for beginners. As the description states: "teaches you the fundamental digital imaging techniques" ... "many Photoshop books focus on features, tools, or techniques, this book covers both the basics and delves into specific skills, tricks, and uses" ... "in a friendly style" ... "with a DVD-ROM" (excellent companion to book). In my humble opinion, that is exactly what it delivers. In fact, I was impressed with this book for those beginning in Photoshop as it delivers the key core skills (regardless of software version) needed to develop as a Photoshop buffin, that it is now one of the core books we provide our students at the start of their graphic design course. Highly, highly recommend it.

I have found this book to be very easy to understand. The DVD is a great companion, showing exactly how to do certain things in Photoshop. I am a college instructor and this is one of the sources I use to teach my students the ins and outs of the program.
