I paint custom cars and bikes but I am not great at getting pics of the work as it is a very reflective surface, do know of any photoshop tutorials that may be able to help with reducing glare? or maybe I just need to be a better photographer lol
there are some excellent easy to follow tutorials for learning photoshop on youtube.
I highly recommend using the latest version of Photoshop which is CS4. They highly revamped and tweaked the Adjust Brightness/Color in the latest version and works like a charm especially for Photo enhancement.
Photoshop is by far the best photo editing product on the market. Even though it is pricey, I highly recommend it. This post does not give much incite except for to Google it.
Thanks,

I love photoshop, I use it on a regular basis. I went to graphic design school and half of what they taught was straight out of the tutorials that came with it. The tutorials are great and there are tons of extra ones online. I think that’s a great place for people new to graphics to start.
Nice tutorial I’ll use it on my next graphic design
Tank you very much
If you use the computer to enhance a scanned photo, then have the photo get printed onto some photo-card – will the result be a quality high-definition photo (as good as the original photo was)?
I have been looking for something like this for ages – thank you! Finally, I’ll be able to USE this silly program!
Photoshop is a great software. I am working with version 6 – 10 years old but still great functionality.

The tip you gave about YouTube was great. I would have never checked there. I never knew they had that much information on Photoshop.
To Jon and his reflective cars. You are right, it\’s very hard to fix reflections perfectly on a high-resolution image. Cloning etc can help, but it can take hours to get perfect as it\’s hard to match real-life contours in photoshop.
When shooting cars invest in some textiles to stretch along the length of the car about 2-3m away from the bodywork and let that show in the reflections rather than what is in the garage/driveway/parkinglot. If you study car photography you\’ll see beautiful white lengths of reflections along panels, and often they set up sheets/panels of either white or black to specifically show up in the reflections. It takes time, but a lot less time than doing a perfect photoshop job.
Photoshop is amazing, but don\’t let it take away from the basis of good photography.
I started into photoshop, and graphic design with photo restoration after watching some online tutorials. I was hooked on photoshop, and soon became very proficient in graphic design. Great place to start with photoshop. -will
Simple but useful advices. To my mind, the best way to start learning photoshop tricks is to watch video tutorials and do all the actions that are being shown. Text tutorials are often more complicated and require some experience to be understood, while video tutorials are more detailed and easier to understand.
. Good luck.
So, my personal recomendation for beginners – do video tutorials at first and after that try learning from text ones
I use Photofiltre for very small enhancements and it works very well.
With Photoshop I think it’s best to try 2 or 3 ways of doing the same thing and then work out which is best for you.
Wow! I appreciate everyone’s comments, this will most definitely keep me motivated to continue with this blog. A BIG THANKS!
i am proficient in photoshop. i am trying to collect photoshop tricks anywhere i got.
thank you
I’ve been considered Photoshop as my nemesis for months. Only during last months i’ve been starting learn how to use…
Nice blogs, congrats!

but i only can do some simple thing.
It is true that there are many tutorials that can help you with photoshop. A good way to learn is to re-create those tutorials and you will find some steps that will be of use to you and learn features and shortcuts that you did not know about
I face the same problem when taking pictures of my jewellery products. The silver is particularly reflective and the way round it is to use a light tent to diffuse the light. Sometimes in addition, you need to work with fabrics and colours and create a relfection that works for you.
I have been can to know by article because here has very effective data you showing photoandfilm blog.
Photoshop CS4 was a brilliant tool for phots\’s but CS5 is a masterpiece, the content aware tool is amazing. And no I don\’t work for adobe!

I enjoy Photoshop but have found that online tutorials can only help so much. For instance, I still don’t understand the masking very well. I post pictures of my weddings all the time, and I’m sure that understanding it better would make my blog more professional looking.
