Photoshop has evolved to become a more and more powerful tool that is only as limited as your imagination. Colby will be going over one of the most powerful tools in its early development, Layers,and Masks, as well as reviewing some of the more recent additions. Along the way, he’ll demonstratehow to remove telephone lines (if you do much of this, it will teach you to photograph with editing inmind). Reviewing this information will not teach you how actually to do it. So Colby will give you someadditional homework so that you can put what you saw into action.
