Customer Reviews

One of the best

I've been using Photoshop for years, pretty much self taught but with the odd search on the internet for tips. I should've read this book right at the beginning because it explains very intelligently and completely, the correct way (and thus easier) of performing various functions. It doesn't leave you scratching your head by leaving a critical point unexplained. It covers most of the basics and explains the most used and important functions. Nearly every page had me going "Ahh" is THAT how I should've been doing that! Or, actually smiling with pleasure at reading something which made me understand something, like paths, or how to correctly extract parts of an image. It is a brilliant book for novices and probably some more experienced users who have been set in their ways and chugging through actions more laboriously than they should've been. This book I highly recommend. I came here looking for a third edition, but to my disappointment there isn't one. Being 2005, it could do with updating on some aspects.

Digital Photography

The book, Introduction to Digital Photography (2nd edition) by Joseph Ciaglia, is very helpful to those who are just begining to enter the digital world. If one already knows alot about digital photography, than this book is a great referrence to look up any questions.

This is great book as a reference tool.

I found this in the Library at the college. After taking a photoshop 1 & 2, this book helped solidify the things I learned and then some. I liked his writing style, he communicates very well. I think he did a better job of explaining things than my professor. Good book.
