Format: Paperback
As a "collectionner" of the best Photoshop books on the market I must recommend this excellent book from Richard Lynch to all the digital photographers among us.Other reviewers explained the content of the book in detail so I won't do the same,I can only agree their comments!

This book is not for beginners(try some others like Donna Bakers'unofficial guide to PHEL4 or the books from Philip Andrews-see my listmania list)

But if you want to understand how "digital photography" sees the real world and how a camera or a scanner tranlate all what you see in the digital format then this book is for you.

Lynch is a real PRO and takes the patience to explain ALL the hidden secrets behind this tremendous Adobe's software.

This is a cheap investment for YEARS believe me;you'll learn on your own pace the multiple facets of "seeing images" like a photographer and by following the exercises and explanations of the 11 chapters (take your time to re-read from time to time and practice,practice...)you NEVER take photos the same way you did before!

The greatest bonus is the companion cd with all the hidden tools(above 100 and the images used in the book).

Richard Lynch has given us an enormous homework to do but it's worth more than any training course that costs you a hundred of bucks!

Terrific,awesome,well explained,I can't find words enough to recommend this book.

Before you run to your local store learn the basics and then...hurry up to acquire this book before it's sold out.

If you won't take the necessary time to read it to understand the magic of tones,luminosity,colors,levels,gradients,masks and other effects or you'll satisfied with the "automatated corrections "in the software don't waste your time and be happy with your actual knowledge.Great job Richard and ...thanks!!!!

It's easy to come up with seductive titles for image editing books, purporting to help you "Master" the topic or offer a "missing" manual. But when you get right down to it, most of the books just offer the same old basic information.

This is one title that lives up to its title. It's an advanced book that does provide you with information about hidden features, undocumented capabilities, and things you never thought of doing with Photoshop Elements 4. As the program itself is based on Photoshop CS, there are lots of things to reveal, and Lynch does a good job of presenting them in a clear and concise way.

If you are already comfortable with Elements 4, but feel a little frustrated by the lack of a number of tools of its bigger brother, this is for you. I bought it for the tools: I discovered the book is full of invaluable advice. Workflow, separations, masking... The combination of Elements 4 with the book and tools covers all my expectations for a dedicated amateur. And yes, I like shooting raw, taking advantage of 16 bits,black and white... and I have still much too learn from the book!
