Solving Photoshop and related Mac hardware and software problems is a crucial and urgent need in a working environment when things can and do go wrong. Rod Wynne-Powell explains how the Mac operating system works and the pitfalls you are likely to fall into. He shows you how to get the best out of your system and improve efficiency. This is the only book on Macs specifically for photographers and digital image makers, written by a digital imaging consultant, trainer, photographer and Photoshop alpha tester who answers digital image makers' Mac queries every day. Wynne-Powell speaks the same language as photographers.

Rod once again has cast his eye over Martin Evening's latest bestselling book in the series: 'Adobe Photoshop for Photographers', and provided some of his insight into what is written and explained. This book gives you completely updated and revised coverage providing a professional photographer's insight into Photoshop CS4.
Inside you'll also find invaluable information on Bridge, with all its new features. Other new developments covered include the evolving Digital Negative (DNG) file format, improvements in Camera Raw file processing and High Dynamic Range imaging.
Packed full of all the latest features and instructive information on key elements from color management to printing, Martin Evening passes on his famous techniques and professional experience in this commanding and authoritative resource.

Past titles in this series are also still available at Amazon.

Martin Evening and Jeff Schewe got together to take things further using Photoshop CS4, and the result is now out. Again, Rod had the honour of being asked to check that everything worked as intended, and to offer any suggestions along the way. Once more a highly recommended title from Focal Press. It includes a DVD for added clarity.

Authors of books whose subject is Photoshop, Lightroom or Mac OS X, could do no better than to employ Rod to cast his insightful eye over their work before publication, and this may be true even when it is just a section within a larger work, as has happened for a Wildlife photographer's book.

Digital photographers who have relied on Adobe Photoshop to work with their images have a new tool at their disposal: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. Designed from the ground up with digital photographers in mind, Lightroom offers powerful features in a streamlined interface that let photographers import, sort, and organize images. "The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book", written by professional photographer and best-selling author Martin Evening, describes Lightroom's features in detail and with photographers in mind. As an established commercial and fashion photographer, Martin knows firsthand what photographers need for a more efficient workflow. He's been working with Lightroom from the beginning, providing feedback to Lightroom's public beta and monitoring the product's development. "The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book" has been earning acclaim since it was first published as a "Rough Cut" book-in-process on Safari, a joint venture between Peachpit and O'Reilly Publishing. Martin has been updating the book's content as Lightroom evolves, giving users the most up-to-date information about this revolutionary product. As a result, Martin knows the software inside and out, making him the perfect author for what will become the definitive book about Adobe Lightroom. Photographers who routinely work with raw images will find Lightroom - and "The Adobe Lightroom Book" - an indispensable tool in their digital darkroom.

An active beta user and author of 'Photoshop Made Simple', Rod has proven to be one of the most meticulous and insightful technical editors it's ever been my pleasure to work with."
