Adobe Photoshop CS6
Have you ever seen photographs that were ripped or faded, then perfectly restored and
wondered, how they did that? Perhaps you have marveled at the way a portrait can be
transformed to make the subject appear 10 years younger or how people can be added or deleted
to a scene. This course will cover batch processing images, advanced masking techniques, special
effects and filters. We will explore the exciting possibilities in High Dynamic Range Photography
(HDR), the current creative trend in image manipulation. Photoshop CS has become an essential
tool for professional and amateur photographers and is considered to be "Today's Darkroom."
