Photoshop
1.
Introduction - Film
and Flatbed Scanners, and digital cameras have created an
expanding market for image editing software like Adobe Photoshop.
The original graphic designers software is fairly common place
with photographers in all walks of life and many camera clubs,
education centres and colleges provide training facilities
for Photoshop software.
Everyone
has their own views about the role of Photoshop in photography
and mine is quite simple, I enjoy taking pictures but enjoy
manipulating them even more. There is a skill in taking the
picture that exhibits good, composition, technical execution
and impact but there is a far more complex skill in learning
Photoshop as those who have gone through years of grief and
frustration will know. Quoting David Rowley, "Making
Photoshop a pleasure instead of a challenge". I post
my work onto the internet for others to enjoy and if they
do, then its an added bonus.
