Guide Review
Photoshop Elements Solutions: The Art of Digital Photography
Amateur and professional photographers alike will find this book packed with practical solutions for a wide range of digital photography problems. Mikkel Aaland is an experienced photographer who guides you through the instruction in a friendly, casual manner that will set even a novice at ease. The topics covered are comprehensive, although the focus is clearly on working with photographic images. The instruction is generously peppered with tips and background information. The whole package is brought together in what has to be one of the most cheerful, easy to follow layouts I've ever encountered in a software-oriented book.
