The Art of Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop is the world's leading image
manipulation software. Used by both professional and amateur graphic
designers, it is the de facto standard for print and Web publishing.
Photoshop Imaging Workshop centers on a suite of 20 digital images
created by Daniel Giordan and his staff at DigiRAMA design studios.
Visually complex, and rich in layered tonality, these images are
designed to inspire readers to push their understanding of Photoshop
and its capabilities, while offering a glimpse over the designer's
shoulder into how the images were created. The
reader will not only learn the techniques used by the author,
but also how to apply them to their own images. They will learn
how to use curves to correct color, silhouette images, use gradient
maps, build custom brushes, use blending modes, and draw and paint
into an image.

Adobe Photoshop 6.0 for
Photographers
Adobe Photoshop 6.0 for Photographers
focuses on the capabilities of Photoshop that are most useful
to professional, particularly commercial, photographers. It's
no cheesy production: with its crisp text and color images printed
on heavyweight paper, and a companion CD-ROM with several substantial
QuickTime movies, it's a beautiful way to learn. The book is primarily
a guide to using Photoshop as an effective photographer's tool.

resolution, and color management. If you are at all unclear about
the RGB workspace, but need to know the ins and outs of profiles,
this book will definitely help. There's even a movie on the CD-ROM
explaining the RGB, CMYK, and LAB spaces. Prepress proofing and
outputting are also well covered.

Real World Photoshop 6

and experienced wisdom would be useful to any Photoshop user,

and others working on prepress production. From bit depth to monitor
settings, gamut warnings, and file formats, this book faces all
those nasty problems that designers often want the service bureau
or printer to fix, but really should handle themselves (if they
want to have the most control over how their artwork prints).

Professional Photoshop
6: The Classic Guide to Color Correction
Plenty of books cover all things Photoshop,
but Professional Photoshop 6: The Classic Guide to Color Correction
is probably one of the few that ought to be required reading.
Filled with clear text and color images, this new edition of the
classic color usage guide stands out among its peers. Updated
to reflect changes in Photoshop since the previous edition, nearly
half the material is either new or has been rewritten. Color correction
itself hasn't changed, but the way it's done and the need for
doing it certainly have. The book contains 17 chapters, each dealing
with a different aspect of correction and image reproduction:
colorspaces, resolution, luminosity, separation, channels, and
much more. Each chapter is worthy of study, and all are interesting.

Adobe Photoshop Master
Class
The author of Adobe Photoshop Master Class
is a skilled art photographer who specializes in intriguing naturescapes
that often employ compositing and mirroring. In this book, he
shares the photographic wisdom and Photoshop methods that helped
create these colorful, mysterious images. The title is appropriate:
the book is modeled after master classes with performance artists;
for example, operatic training with Maria Callas. The readers
get to see, in detail, Caponigro's techniques and read his philosophies.
This demonstration includes Photoshop basics that apply to all
types of digital imaging, including calibration, adjustment layers,
variations, levels, and curves. It also covers visual principles
that are essential to photography in general, like proportion,
scale, light, and shadows (including Ansel Adams's Zone system),
and--important in the author's own work--reflection and tessellation.
