5.0 out of 5 stars
Weird but expanding,

This review is from: DigitalXposure (Hardcover)
This book is expensive. This book is heavy-duty extremely weird. So just what could the professor have in mind when she made this book her "Digital Photography" textbook. I wasn't happy.
Well, as it turns out, she planned to have us "duplicate" at least THREE of the images in the book. Yikes! I could hardly find anything that I wanted to waste my time on---but whoa! In the end I DID duplicate three of the artists images. An impossible task I said at the beginning. The digital artists in the book are phenominally gifted and their images are beyond complex and intricate. It is expensive used as a "picture book", but I would encourage you to tackle using Adobe Photoshop to try to duplicate many of them. What an unbelievable experience. I learned 100 times in my college class trying to do the impossible and reaching excellent results than I would have done in another approach. And it's an excellent collection of just what the possibilities are for Digital Photography. And were we proud of ourselves or not?? Oh, yeah!
