Creating Black-and-White Landscape Photos with Photoshop More Info HERE File Size 624.4 MB Photographers like Ansel Adams taught us to look differently at nature: not in terms of color, but instead emphasizing tone and contrast. Converting images to black-and-white reveals these hidden depths of composition and focus a viewer’s attention on forms, textures, and fabrics. In this course, Taz Tally teaches you how to use modern techniques to transform color images into majestic black-and-white landscapes, using the modern photographer’s favorite tool: Photoshop. Learn how to evaluate images with the Info tool, convert RGB color images using Photoshop’s time-saving black-and-white presets, and make more advanced adjustments with the black-and-white custom sliders, masks, and adjustment layers. Plus, learn finishing techniques, like sharpening, that will make your images look their best when it comes time to print. Topics include: Exploring different methods for creating grayscale images Measuring grayscale values using the Histogram and Info panels Adjusting highlights and shadows to improve brightness and contrast Enhancing foreground-background separation Creating contrast with masks Enhancing contrast with gradient masks and clipping-masked curves Sharpening with nondestructive tools Hidden Content: **Hidden Content: You must click 'Like' before you can see the hidden data contained here.**
Thanks @xjjx Don't know why files get dropped during the UL process - will post new link and double check RE reference, this is an old (albeit still relevant) course (from 2014, I think) - but will link what I can best find. I think it was archived and now doesn't have a direct link anymore (?)
