Mafud: >> Not in ~my~ experiences with Photoshop. Isaac: >>How many years? What versions? How much per day? Any schooling?
Whew, these are truly pertinent questions. One of my writers at the magazine was John Paul Caponigro, the son of the great landscape photographer Paul Caponigro and a pre-eminent artist using digital imaging techniques. He was a VERY early adopter of digital printing methods, and had a copy of the very first version of Adobe Photoshop. He now writes widely about Photoshop techniques, including a recent book about it. He's a beta-tester for Adobe and keeps abreast of every version and the techniques of other users. And even HE told me that he still doesn't know everything about Photoshop--every now and then he learns something he wasn't aware of. My former art director used Photoshop every day in her work and was really good with it (I thought) and yet she described herself to me as "middle of the pack" in terms of Photoshop skills. (What she had really mastered was Quark.) Photoshop is definitely not something you either know or don't know. It's always a matter of degree. --Mike - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
