"Well done and informative book" according to Amazon Customer. I really have been enjoying Max Ferguson's Digital Darkroom book. For me, the book has been a well-written exploration of both the capabilities of Photoshop and digital tools, and more importantly, getting an image to photo. You know, composition, artistry, all the good stuff that great photographers are thinking about when they set up their shots.Photography is changing these days, don't you think? I still love the film world, but have fully embraced the digital world. If you're going that route too, then this book is well worth your time to spend some ti. "I am the author" according to Max Ferguson. ()First. The CD contains a whole lot of Adobe liscenced demo software for Mac and PC.It would take you hours to download. I know I downloaded it. That's good value.Second. I'm Mac based so the Director files are Mac based. Sorry about this but there is only so much room on a CD. I have PC emulation on my Mac. So no problem. My Mac can read PC stuff. Sorry it doesn't work the other way. Moan to Bill Gates.Third.I can't include all the images from the book. They aren't my copyright. Most importantly if you are going to make images with this fabulous software. Essential guide for photographers and printers Max's book de-mystifies the computer for photographers and printers used to working their magic in the darkroom. Max gives clear and simple instructions in a way that will be familar to any who have attended his workshops and lectures. An essential guide that will enable the photographer to achieve the same or better results than they could produce in the darkroom. This is the book I have been waiting for!
Not just for transferring skills from darkroom to computer but for presenting photographers with a methodology for how to do their digital darkroom work.'Joël Lacey, Best of Books 2000, Amateur Photographer, December 2000'Thanks to his unique combination of experiences, Ferguson is one of almost certainly only a few people who could have written a book like this with such authority Were it not for the fact that the digital world changes so rapidly, this ought to become classic in the best tradition of digital darkroom masterclass books. 'I will buy anything by Max Ferguson This is a book I want to read and I would imagine that the majority of those involved in darkroom or digital printing would too.'
