What is amazing about the page stats is that Martin Evening deliberately concerns himself only with features of Photoshop as related to the needs of photographers, concentrating on tools and methods rather than ‘how to’ examples of projects (for that his book with Jeff Schewe The Ultimate Workshop is recommended).Īll this leaves the beginner with a dilemma – how to get up to speed. However, it has expanded to a jaw-dropping 764 pages despite three whole chapters being shuffled off to join 669 pages of additional material on the website which accompanies the book, Specifically, the chapters entitled Configuring Photoshop, Image Management and Automate have been shuffled. Starting with fewer than 400 pages (for version 5.5 – 384 pages for example) it has grown steadily and we thought it might have topped out at 730 pages for 2015.5. We last reviewed the series for the 2015.5 version of Photoshop and commented at the time on the way that the book has grown with the evolution of the software. For those readers who are unfamiliar with Martin Evening, he is a beauty and fashion photographer specialising mainly in fashion, hair and makeup (his models are always good looking!). They are all festooned in sticky post-it tags highlighting frequently consulted pages. In a world that is shifting towards digital publishing it has held up remarkably well and copies of the early editions stand proudly bending the shelves of the office (they are VERY heavy!).
This is the latest of Martin Evening’s long-running series that has covered Photoshop versions for longer than most people can remember (23 years apparently). This is a book that no serious Photoshop user should be without.īUY NOW: Adobe Photoshop 2020 for Photographers: 2020 Edition
