Learning the basics of Photoshop is an admirable feat. Unfortunately, that's exactly where most people end their Photoshop journey, with a fundamental appreciation of the program and the ability to execute a few helpful techniques. But without a full understanding of and capability with layers and selections (arguably Photoshop's most powerful tools) you're leaving the vast majority of Photoshop's power and potential untapped.

Glyn focuses on layers and selections in this book, knowing that if you can learn and master these two features, you'll have everything you need to maximise Photoshop's potential.

Adobe Photoshop is one of the most powerful image-editing applications ever created, but it is also widely thought to be difficult to learn, infinite in scope, and nearly impossible to master. For these reasons, many photographers choose to stay exclusively with Lightroom for all their photography needs.

In The Photoshop Toolbox, photographer and bestselling author Glyn Dewis breaks down Photoshop into just three main features: layer masks, brushes, and blend modes.

No photographer works in a vacuum. Photographers, like all artists, stand on the shoulders of those who came before them, and they are informed and influenced by those working around them. If you are striving to find your own style, one of the most powerful exercises you can practise is to find influence and inspiration in the work of those around you, and then emulate that work in an effort to define, shape, and grow your own photographic voice.

In Photograph Like a Thief, photographer, author, and retoucher Glyn Dewis embraces the idea of stealing and recreating others' work in order to improve as an artist.

The Photoshop Workbook reveals the creative skills that photographer and retoucher Glyn Dewis uses for his global clients. You'll learn not only his step-by-step Photoshop techniques, but how and when to apply them so that you, too, can take your images to a whole new level.

It covers mastering selections and cutouts with the Pen tool, dodging and burning, adding textures, transforming a location, using the power of grey for composites, and lighting effects such as spotlights, beams, realistic shadows, reflections and street lighting.
