A Complete Visual Guide for Photographers.
Digital image-making is the fastest growing - and developing - area of photography today.
Many experienced photographic printmakers, realising the enormous wealth of possibilities offered by this new medium, are changing from producing prints in the darkroom to creating archival exhibition-quality images via digital cameras and scanners, both of which are becoming more affordable by the day.
This book covers the whole range of electronic image making, from the simple manipulation of elements on a scanner to complex collages unthinkable 10 years ago, except to those with sophisticated darkrooms at their disposal and an unlimited amount of time.
Detailed case studies are included showing possible pitfalls and how to avoid them. The book features demonstrations on how to change black and white to colour and vice versa; explorations in the digital equivalent of darkroom toning, litho printing and image retouching techniques; and information on experimenting with a spectrum of different colours on a subject for graphic effect.
All these techniques and many more are now at the digital image maker's fingertips with the step-by-step sequences demonstrated in this book.
