Teach Yourself VISUALLY Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2

Author: Lynette Kent

The amateur and home photographers today take many more photos than they ever would have with film cameras, and the sorting process alone can be an ominous and time consuming chore. Unlike Photoshop, Lightroom enables the photographer to organize, process, and output large numbers of files and effectively streamline the so called digital workflow, reducing the work and enhancing the flow of processing digital photographs. All the features of Lightroom such as moving the cursor directly on the image to adjust it, which are intended to simplify digital editing for the professional photographer, also make the photo editing process easier for the amateur. For once the professional level application is easier to use for everyone. This book provides the general photo enthusiast easy to follow steps to get past the intimidation factor of "a professional tool." Teach Yourself Visually Adobe Photoshop Lightroom will simplify the "photo geek speak," explain the interface and tools so the average person with a digital camera will feel comfortable and be able to start organizing, editing, and outputting photos right away.
