Wanting to learn the art of digital rendering and have noticed that no matter the software it seems every artist has a photoshop program in the works. So as my first baby step I have bitten the bullet and purchased CS5 extended. Now for the big question, is there a CS5 for dummies book out there...lol! Some of the terminology, which would be basic for someone else is, lost on me. Even just a glossary would be a help. :~) The CS5 live and other video tutorials seen so far are not specific to my inquiries nor do I find some of these easy to follow. The mist blowing off the top of El Capitan wafted all around, and the camera picked up all that fine mist as noise throughout the image. Managed to remove a lot of that noise playing around with the filters. Toyed a bit with adding a watermark, don't know if I like doing that as I find them a nuisance. This is a Partial shot of El Capitan. To see in it's entirety, including this small unnamed waterfall click here.
