Managing your Photographic Workflow with Photoshop Lightroom
Since the early days of digital photography, the
photographic "workflow" has been anything but a flow. A
diverse set of tools for managing, developing, editing,
tweaking, and printing images was available to digital
photographers, but some of them were never designed to be
used for photographic imaging. With Adobe
Photoshop
Lightroom (and Apple's new competitive program, Aperture), a
new generation of software tools has arrived that have been
designed from the ground up specifically for digital
photographic post-processing.
This book guides the new user through Photoshop Lightroom
1.2, which has more power under the hood, and a little more
complexity than one would expect from its fairly
straightforward user interface. This powerful new program
offers photographers the vast majority of the tools they
need all in one place, providing new and easier to use tools
for managing and processing their images.
With easy to follow, step-by-step instructions and
full-color illustrations, the authors demonstrate how to use
Photoshop Lightroom to build an efficient photographic
workflow; from importing and organizing images; through the
development and editing phases; all the way to building
presentations for the web and in slideshows; and finally, to
the ultimate product--the fine art print on paper.
