Book Review: Real World Camera Raw with Adobe Photoshop CS by Bruce Fraser

Having read Out of Gamut: Calibrating Camera Raw in Photoshop CS offsite on Creative Pro offsite back in May and then seeing subsequent rumblings that this information was from a new Real World book, I was excited about Real World Camera Raw with Adobe Photoshop CS offsite, by Bruce Fraser, before it was even printed. The Real World offsite series of books—of which I’ve read several—focuses on getting the job done; the tagline to these books is “industrial-strength production techniques.” By focusing on getting the task done, these books show and tell what you need to know to create a productive workflow.

This is a test. . .it’s only a test. . .
If, this were a real emergancy, you would be out of luck!

Actually, this is just a placeholder to make sure all the content categories show.
