Have you noticed how some photographs just look better?
Some years back, I began seeing wonderful landscape photos that stood out from the crowd. Although I couldn’t understand why, I knew the light, colour and saturation looked better than in other photos. Not only that, but the editing appeared totally natural.
After painstaking investigation, I learned that many of these photographs were produced using a technique called Luminosity Masking. There wasn’t much information about, but I eventually pieced together how it was done and started using the techniques myself. Now I’m sharing this so that every photographer can benefit from what I’ve learned.
In this comprehensive workbook, you will learn the photo editing skills required to produce beautiful photography. With step-by-step instruction and practical examples, everything is explained in full. Best of all, you don’t need to be a Photoshop expert to use it.

A time-honored art instruction guide, both motivational and inspirational, this volume is a must-have for the bookshelves of every artist.
