Advanced Photoshop Elements 7 for Digital Photographers:

This essential guide for intermediate/advanced photographers has now been fully updated for Elements 7.

Bestselling author and Elements guru Philip Andrews turns his expansive knowledge to this powerful application, delivering, once again, a practical approach in a crystal-clear writing style.
For the advanced Elements user, this book offers a standalone guide to advancing knowledge of the software. For those with a little less experience, it works seamlessly in conjunction with Philip’s other Elements guide: “Adobe Photoshop Elements 7: A visual introduction to digital photography”. Philip expands on the solid foundation delivered by that title to deliver a master-guide that shows you just how powerful this deceptively simple software package can be.

Throughout the book, Philip takes a pro’s approach, emphasising a streamlined, non-destructive workflow. Diverse chapters cover the entire spectrum of photographic potential offered by the software, including key areas such as: darkroom techniques, advanced selection techniques, professional retouching, photo restoration, panoramas, collages, RAW processing and printing. Additionally, the content is supplemented by extra great learning tools available on the website: WWW.XXXXXX.com. These include: downloadable resources, and Elements vodcasts.

Essential reading for all photographers using Elements 7.

* Advanced guide to Elements, the natural sequel to the bestselling ‘Adobe Photoshop Elements 6′
* Written by Philip Andrews, world-renowned Photoshop elements expert
