Customer Reviews
Overcomplicated post-processing - Rated Having read quite a few books and articles on how to improve the appearance of skin, this book describes some new approaches that work well, but equally describes some very complicated methods, well beyond beginner level, with the results not being significantly better (IMHO) than some more straightforward approaches. If you're doing this type of work mainly for fun then I suggest this is not the book for you - stick to simpler texts. For the published pro I'm sure the effort is warranted. Overkill - Rated Too much photoshop and not enough technique. Is it not better to get the shot right in camera and not need to over process the shot. Why make a silk purse out of a sows ear? Ultimate skin - Rated Let's face it taking a good photograph is now only part of the story, to make a great image now requires a good grasp of retouching techniques. Skin is an incredible book full of sensible advice & professional techniques on making great images from your photographs. If you take portrait/people shots regularly, and retouch them this book is a good investment. Simply amazing - Rated This is a book that unveils a lot of the secrets of professional photography retouching with a strong focus on Photoshop. Also includes various studio lighting set-ups and tips. It also shows you how to do that realistic yet strong retouching of skin that you always wanted to know how to do. Recommended for anyone who does post-processing in Photoshop and would like to make the best use of it.
