Photography's Digital Revolution: an Adventure into Personal Vision and Creative Expression Herb Parkin

Have FUN with your camera and computer. A non-technical approach to your photography in the twenty-first century. THE WIND OF CHANGE IS SWEEPING OVER THE WORLD OF PHOTOGRAPHY... IT IS THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION!Photography's Digital Revolution is not just another book on digital photography. Neither is it the photographic or computer imaging equivalent of a 'painting by numbers' guide book. There are so many books on the market on digital enhancing - something must be happening! There comes a point when you ask - what next? This book just might be it... I believe that in photography the key to self-fulfillment is creative expression. Some readers may find this book controversial, most will find it instructional and, hopefully, all will find it inspirational. The bottom line is that through your camera and computer you will gain the insight to express yourself more creatively. Remember the time when taking a photograph depended on the 'right' light, the 'decisive' moment and the 'correct' exposure; when recommended films, specific lenses and correction filters were the order of the day and the smell of chemicals and tedium in the darkroom the course of the night? Remember when photography was complicated, time consuming and expensive? Remember ... yesterday? Today is a new day for photography. The personal computer is changing everything. At the touch of a button a photograph can be manipulated in such a subtle manner as to question reality or, just as easily, be altered beyond recognition. YOU TOO CAN ACHIEVE 'THE IMPOSSIBLE'
