Online Training Leader lynda.com Announces Release of Photoshop CS3 for Photographers

Over 13 Hours of Essential Techniques for Digital Photographers

Ojai, California (PRWEB) June 26, 2007 -- lynda.com, the leader in self-paced digital media and design training, today introduced Photoshop CS3 for Photographers.

Photoshop CS3 for Photographers covers all the essential techniques a digital photographer needs to master in order to take advantage of Photoshop's possibilities. Instructor Chris Orwig teaches everything from the key elements to the advanced tools of the application, demonstrating how to apply them for the best photographic results in print or online. He also gets into the nitty-gritty of using Photoshop, from working with Camera Raw to finessing a retouch.

"Chris Orwig approaches this training from two perspectives: teaching Photoshop CS3 and teaching digital photography techniques. As an instructor at the renowned Brooks Institute of Photography, what Chris possesses over a traditional Photoshop instructor is his deep passion and knowledge of photography principles, along with his classroom teaching skills. Chris has produced this training for lynda.com since Photoshop CS, and it has consistently been among the most popular training topics we publish," says Lynda Weinman, CEO of lynda.com.
