In this update of the 2004 edition, Smith offers new tutorials and material on the tools of this version of Adobe Photoshop, the "darkroom of the present" for the growing number of photographers making the transition from film to digital photography. He goes beyond photo-taking basics to manipulating single and multiple images, creating special effects, producing animation, and optimizing printing. The companion CD-ROM features the images appearing in the book and some of the techniques on video. Annotation © 2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
