Brilliant Digital Photography Résumé

Brilliant Digital Photography John Skeoch

As more and more people switch to using digital cameras, Brilliant Digital Photography is the ideal companion guide to help you to capture your own vivid images, print your own family album and potentially even sell your work. Covering every aspect of digital photography from helping you select the ideal camera, getting the best from your equipment right through to publishing your work on the web or getting your images on to canvas, this book has it all. Unlike conventional film photography you don't need to have your own dark room to edit your images and this volume will cover tips from cropping to advanced techniques for digital retouching. From simple enhancements such as removing red eye to restoring aging family photos, or more ambitious tasks like adding or removing missing relatives, this book will cover the techniques and tools used step by step so that you become an expert in no time!
