I worked with Barry when I launched Digital PhotoFX back in 1997. At the time he was one of the leading digital imaging experts - these days we have loads of experts so the question is... will Barry still be ahead of the game? For a start he's chosen to use Photoshop Elements which is much more affordable than Photoshop so that's a welcome move. The book has the familiar clean Ilex design and the photos are from Barry's extensive collection. These are great examples to work with and make the bo...

I don't believe it !! ;) I have to say I disagree about DI workers - I know and admit the limitations. My job revolves around digital imaging and I have a couple of digital cameras myself, but I also have 6 film cameras, and when I went to Hamburg this weekend, I only took film. As far as "wet" printing is concerned, there are MANY photographers who can not find the space to print at h...

I've have found the video tutorials that come the magazines great, i find them better than books. Stephen

Gretzky was going to coach his Coyotes this season. As a Coyote devotee and former season ticket holder, that almost makes me glad there's been a lock-out all season. Gretzky was probably the gteatest ever to lace a pair of skates on, but as a GM/owner he hardly falls into that category. When the Ellman/Gretzky consortium bought the 'Yotes franchise, they promised to end the days of being pe...

Pictures to Exe has my vote plus how to videos by Barry Beckham, also on EPZ TV for some photoshop stuff There are also some good example videos on youtube.

Sorry Pete, but I do mean PM. I found too much of the photgraphy was not to my interest and several of the articles have been covered before or by other magazines too often. I also thought there was too much landscape, which could have been in OP. The Wild Life article was very good. But please remember, these comments in forum are only personal comments, through based on a varity of experienc...

You took and saw the picture Alan, well done and also well done for presenting it to us for comment and suggestions. P/S is a steep learning curve but great fun :-)

Great. Thanks for that Nik. If it's Beckham video, it's a 'must see'!

Instead of buying books as this can keep growing. Why not look at training CD's. Barry Thomas is the boss but his CD's are nearly 60. The other to look at is Barry Beckham, you will find him at Wantage Photo Club. He's very good.

It would appear that way, my alien friend.

Welcome to the site ....always good to see another Nikon user ;-) Your photo of Niagra falls is an eye opener for me, I always thought it was in the middle of nowhere! Rob

Do yourself a favour and buy a lightmeter that will do incedent light readings. you'll find it more reliable than the camers own lightmeter howevever sophisticated the manufacture calim it is.

Hi J. Forget the books,by far the best way is CD tutorials. My favorites are those by Barrie Thomas and Barry Beckham. You dont get bogged down with techy text and you can run them at the same time as you work on the image. Regards Tony.

I heard that he ran off to become a hippy, run a commune, and people fell in love with him (I heard)

Thanks everyone. Gone for the Mikkel Aaland book. The one by Barry Beckham also looks quite good from a quick scan in Waterstones. Iain

I've got 'The Digital Photographer's Guide to Photoshop Elements' by Barry Beckham. Very useful starting at the basics and moving on a little. Excellent colour photos and step by step guides to most things you need to know. Also have 'The Hidden Power of Photoshop Elements 2' by Richard Lynch which gives you a disc with extra tools, yet to read this. Michael
