Congratulations!"-Leo Skogstroem Pyttis, Finland"I learned more about photoshop in the three daysI spent studying your book than I did in the 5 years playing around with it on my own. Your coverage of Color Management solved many issues I'd been having in trying to get the printed image to look like what I was seeing on my monitor. What Ilearned from you is that I was doing just about everything wrong with regards to capture and destructive editing. I have now completely changed both my pre- and post production work flow habits with amazing results. As a writer and small-publisher, Igive you many kudos on creating a book that is by all accounts a real home run."-Rick Miller"I just wanted to write and say this is one of the best books I have ever read! I got it today and have spent all night reading it (it's about1 am now) and I'm almost half way through it. Everything makes so much more sense now. I just wanted to tell you great job! It has gotten me more excited about photography in six hours than otherwise in the last six years!I really like your style and would like to "relearn" photography with your way of explaining. Thank you so much for writing this book. It's the first time I've been impressed enough with a product to write the maker and thank them."-Zachary Miklich Nashville,TN"Long story short this is probably the best book that anyone in the digital world should put their hand to, it is far from being only about BW."-Patrick Lavoie photo.net patron"I am halfway through your new book on B&W in CS3 and LR and I want to compliment you on a clear and concise treatise on CS3 and LR and your integrated work flow. Again, congratulations on an excellent book!"-Jeff Peters"I am enjoying your new book "Black and White". It is rare to find so many wonderful images in a 'How To' book."-Robert Sachs"I wish that I can tell you how I appreciate your contribution to making the digital darkroom something that I have fell in love with. Up to now I have used various books and sources: bits here and bits there. I have actually build up quite a library.No one particular reference book addressed the B+W worker with some basic understanding of Photoshop. You have produced something that fills this gap, and which is written and illustrated in a remarkable manner.I hail from the chemical darkroom, and as such have never really enjoyed correcting images on the computer. Photoshop, which is my program of choice, is quite intimidating, and the haphazard wayin which I learned my skills from various sources, reflected in the inconsistent results that I was producing. Well, now all have changed. At least - something good is happening. I hope that you make a killing with your book - you deserveto!Keep abreast of the distant 'also-runners' by releasing updates as the technology changes."-Andre du Plescis(South African, living in London)"Black And White In Photoshop CS3 And Lightroom explains in clear and easy to understand steps what it takes to generate quality black and white images using Photoshop and/or Lightroom. It is really geared for the intermediate to advanced user who is looking to understand both workflow and color management techniques.There are a number of thing that I like about Black And White In Photoshop CS3 And Lightroom. First, I like the fact that it takes you down a number of paths on creating black and white images. It doesn't just say this is the best way and so that is all you learn. Second, I like the step-by-step approach to guide you through what you need to do to get results liket his.I think that if you want to become a master of Black and White photography then Black And White InPhotoshop CS3 And Lightroom is highly recommended reading."-T.
