Description - GIMP 2.6 for Photographers by Klays Goelker

mage editing has become a crucial element in the
photographic workflow. Image editing tools, most notably
Photoshop, are usually sophisticated and deep
applications, and are fairly expensive. The only open
source tool in this market is the GIMP, which has
developed into a powerful, multiplatform system running
on Linux, Mac OS X, and Microsoft Windows. GIMP 2.6 for
Photographers is a beginner's guide to the only open
source image editing tool that provides a low-cost
alternative to expensive programs such as Photoshop.
Topics include the basics of image editing and simple
adjustments, as well as advanced techniques using layers
and masks, stitching panoramic images, and preparing high-
quality black and white images. The most important
editing functions are presented in individual, easy-to-
follow workshops.
