Adobe Photoshop Lightroom & Photoshop Workflow Bible

ISBN ~978-0470303092

The digital photographer's workflow is divided into two styles of workflow.  The first portion of the workflow is used to import and organize images, and prepare them for presentation via proof printing, Web, or slideshow.  Increasingly, photographers are turning to Adobe's acclaimed new Lightroom software to manage these needs.  After the best images have been identified in the first portion of workflow, Photoshop is used to fine-tune them and take them to the next level of quality. Many photographers are confused by one or both parts of this workflow.

Adobe Lightroom & Photoshop Workflow Bible guides digital photographers through the image editing process from uploading large quantities of Raw files into the computer, to printing that special image from a single file. The Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop Workflow Bible is an invaluable reference on optimizing the management of images through Photoshop and Lightroom to create an efficient, effective, and logical workflow.  The book's website includes full-color images from throughout the book.
