Color Management in Digital Photography: Ten easy Steps to True Colours in Photoshop
Color management is one of the essential elements, yet major
stumbling blocks in digital photography. The vast majority
of digital photographers really wish they didn't have to be
concerned with color management, yet the basic process of
moving images from capture to print becomes impractical
without it. And the more sophisticated
the photography
workflow becomes, the more important it is to manage colors
from capture to print.
In this book, Brad Hinkel simplifies the language of color
management. It is based on classes and workshops the author
has given to hundreds of students of digital photography.
His process for color management is intended to provide
enough information to create a simple and effective system
allowing the user to get on with photography - focus on
creativity instead of technology. However, the fact that
this book suggests a simple approach to color management
does not mean it sacrifices quality and effectiveness.
Simpler is usually better - if it works.
