Book Description

Still photography doesn't have to mean static images, a fact nobody understands better than well-known photographer and Photoshop Hall of Famer Vincent Versace. In this book, Vincent details his cinematic approach to evoke time and its passage in still photographic images, and provides a wealth of practical and artistic guidance for anyone with a serious interest in digital photography. Whether readers are looking to enrich their Photoshop skills, broaden their understanding of conceptual and aesthetic principles, get a handle on lighting and color theory, or simply inject some life into their still digital images, they'll benefit from Vincent's unique approach to the art and craft of digital photography. Offering advice and instruction on everything from creating lighting in Photoshop to setting up printers, taking advantage of color management, capturing movement, and more, this beautifully illustrated guide conveys the unique vision of a singularly successful fine-art photographer.

This completely updated new edition of Welcome to Oz comes with free software downloads including Focalpoint from onOne, and three Nik plugins; as well as a complete set of Wacom tablet presents—all worth $250!
