Digital Manipulation

Edit and enhance your digital photos using software tools and techniques. Topics include retouching, color adjustments, special effects, and restoration methods.

Adding Borders

Add visual impact to your photos with borders in Photoshop using simple canvas size adjustments.

Basic Touch-Ups

Quick fixes like brightness and contrast adjustments can transform dull photos into sharp, vibrant images.

Black and Whtie

Digital cameras can produce excellent black and white photos when you convert them properly in post-production instead of using on-camera modes.

Curves and the 'Unsharp' Mask

Master Photoshop's Curves tool and Unsharp Mask to improve your photos beyond basic brightness and contrast adjustments.

Digital Art Effects

Use Photoshop's built-in filters and tools to turn your photos into digital artwork without needing expensive equipment.

Photo-Montages

Photomontage blends photography with traditional art by compositing multiple images together, from hand-cut collages to modern digital techniques.

Photoshop Basics

Photoshop uses layers to let you edit different parts of an image separately, making complex edits manageable for amateur photographers.

Removing 'Noise'

Digital noise in photos happens when unwanted pixel specks appear, and here's why it occurs and how to fix it.

Repairing Old Photos

Fix faded and damaged old photos yourself using basic digital tools instead of paying someone to restore them.
