Digital tutorial
Tonight (6th Dec 07) Paul explained how to edit colours in Photoshop. He started with a graphic project: a map which needed areas coloured in. Paul went on to show the club how to select areas, and use layers to put different things in different places. The lesson continued with a couple of photos of different subjects where Paul used levels and the colour range tool to selectively adjust images. Unfortunately Paul was plagued with a few technical problems. Don't worry Paul we all get those days :O)
