商品描述

You are not offering testimony to the existence of something, you are bringing something into existence―something that did not exist before, and that would not exist if it were not for you. ~Guy Tal

The first step to creating an expressive photograph happens before you even click the shutter: it is the act of visualizing an image in your mind’s eye. Once composed and captured, the data recorded by the camera is then transformed in processing to match the visualized image.

To become a better expressive photographer means, among other things, to become a better visualizer. This requires more than just technical skill, but also an understanding of what art is, what it means to be an artist, and how to translate your thoughts, feelings, and experiences into visual creations.

In The Landscape Photographer’s Guide to Photoshop: A Visualization-Driven Workflow, Guy Tal provides a broad theoretical foundation for digital landscape photography as an expressive visual art, and for understanding how art and technology come together to serve your creative purpose. He then offers a roadmap for a visualization-driven approach to processing images in Photoshop.

Topics include:

• An overview of the history of art and of photography as art

• A deeper understanding of creativity and visualization, and of the technical underpinnings of digital imaging

• Techniques to effectively apply visualization in creating and processing your images

• How to perform “gap analysis” to identify the gaps between the image at any point in time and the desired outcome

• How to convert your RAW files using Adobe Camera Raw prior to editing in Photoshop

• How best to employ many of Photoshop’s tools and features

• How to leverage Layers and Masks to accomplish your visualized results

• How to control and adjust contrast, color, and tone

• Image blending techniques to extend dynamic range and for focus stacking

• Processing strategies for black-and-white conversions, including toning your images

• Printing and other output techniques including sizing, sharpening, noise reduction, and color management

Bringing all of these techniques together, Guy presents a detailed case study, beginning with his initial visualization for the final image and working through his processing steps from RAW conversion to the final print.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

你不僅僅是提供某種存在的證詞,而是創造了一種從前不存在的東西,如果沒有你,它將不會存在。~ Guy Tal

創造一張有表達力的照片的第一步發生在你按下快門之前:就是在你的腦海中形象化一張圖像。一旦構圖和拍攝完成,相機記錄的數據將在處理過程中轉化為與形象化的圖像相匹配的形式。

成為一個更好的有表達力的攝影師意味著,除了技術技能外,還需要理解藝術是什麼,成為一個藝術家意味著什麼,以及如何將你的思想、感受和經歷轉化為視覺創作。

在《風景攝影師的Photoshop指南:以形象化驅動的工作流程》中,Guy Tal提供了關於數碼風景攝影作為一種有表達力的視覺藝術的廣泛理論基礎,以及理解藝術和技術如何結合來實現你的創意目的。然後,他提供了一個以形象化為驅動的方法來處理Photoshop中的圖像的路線圖。

主題包括:
• 藝術和攝影作為藝術的歷史概述
• 對創造力和形象化的更深入理解,以及數碼影像技術的技術基礎
• 有效應用形象化在創建和處理圖像中的技巧
• 如何進行“差距分析”,以確定任何時間點上圖像與期望結果之間的差距
• 如何在Photoshop中編輯之前使用Adobe Camera Raw轉換原始文件
• 如何最佳地使用Photoshop的工具和功能
• 如何利用圖層和遮罩實現你的形象化結果
• 如何控制和調整對比度、色彩和色調
• 擴展動態範圍和焦點堆疊的圖像混合技術
• 黑白轉換的處理策略,包括調色你的圖像
• 印刷和其他輸出技術,包括大小調整、銳化、降噪和顏色管理

將所有這些技術結合在一起,Guy提供了一個詳細的案例研究,從他對最終圖像的初始形象化開始,並通過從原始文件轉換到最終打印的處理步驟。
