 Introduction to Photoshop Course

This tutorial is written by Pablo García Sánchez and is brought to us by the University of Granada .

As its name suggests, this  Introduction to Photoshop Course is aimed at inexperienced users, however, unlike the previous tutorial, this PDF focuses more on the world of digital photography and photo retouching .

The manual begins with a very useful  introduction to the world of cameras and digital photography , teaching us some essential concepts.

Later they teach us some basic but essential photographic retouching processes , such as cropping and straightening an image, adjusting the brightness and color, removing spots and some filters and effects.

If you are interested in learning how to use Adobe Photoshop for photo editing purposes, this PDF tutorial is a must for you.
