  • The sharpening techniques the pros really use.
  • The pros' tricks for fixing the most common digital photo problems fast!

  • A host of shortcuts, workarounds, and slick "insider" tricks to send your productivity through the roof!

Plus, Scott includes a special bonus chapter with his own CS6 workflow, from start to finish, and each chapter ends with a Photoshop Killer Tips section, packed with timesaving, job-saving tips that make all the difference. If you're a digital photographer, and if you're ready to learn all the "tricks of the trade"—the same ones that today's leading pros use to correct, edit, sharpen, retouch, and present their work–then you're holding the book that will do just that.

From Oz to Kansas

From Oz to Kansas

Book Description

The ability to create a stunning black and white image remains one of 's greatest and most aspirational skills. Being able to “see” in black and white is an enviable capability, and a well-crafted black and white photograph remains the finest of the fine arts. Master photographer Vincent Versace has spent his career teaching the art of perception and translate it into extraordinary black and white images.

In From Oz to Kansas: Almost Every Black and White Conversion Technique Known to Man, Versace discusses black and white –with a nod to traditional film-based techniques. As Versace states, today the goal is “to use what was right and good about silver , leaving behind what was limiting, and use what is right and good about photography, while avoiding its pitfalls. This is what this book is all about.”

The reason you must learn “almost every black and white conversion technique known to man” is because, depending on the image–and your goals for it–there are many paths you can take in order to arrive at your final destination. Working through Versace's techniques will give you the essential knowledge you need, as well as the ability to select the appropriate conversion technique for any image, allowing you to create a black and white image that best and most accurately reflects what you felt at the moment that you pressed the shutter.
