Описание: Digital nature photographers are a different breed from other types of photographers. They are equal parts adventurer, traveler, nature and wildlife observer, and digital photographer. Facing challenges other photographers don't have, digital nature photographers have to take a lot into consideration when practicing their craft. Digital Nature Photography and Adobe Photoshop is written expressly for digital nature photographers, addressing their particular needs.
Digital Nature Photography and Adobe Photoshop combines information on editing and processing digital nature and landscape photos using Adobe Photoshop, with an advanced guide to composing and shooting as well as choosing the proper equipment. The first half of the book provides detailed information on the essential equipment, gear, and techniques needed to photograph nature and landscapes, while the second half lays out how to develop workflows to perform color and tonal corrections to images, as well as how to apply some advanced editing techniques to your photographs. This comprehensive guide also details creating special effects using Photoshop filters and converting color images into stunning black-and-white photographs. All of the essential skills are taught using step-by-step tutorials and enhanced by stunning full-color examples of digital nature photography.
