[Anna · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a superb book for photographers and image-editors alike. I am a rabid fan of Jim Krause; I own several of his books and he has a wonderful, imaginative eye, he sees things in a truly unique and creative fashion. The book works through several exercises whose images you can download and his explanations of the procedures is thorough and interesting. Not your average photography book, nor your average software manual - it is a visual treat and chock-full of idea triggers.
