This series of 4 consecutive workshops is structured around the ultimate goal of making fine digital prints: from camera capture and/or scanning, to manipulation in Photoshop, to printing on an inkjet printer. A general overview of each step is followed by demonstrations on actual images, with an explanation of the various tools and options involved.

This is a demonstration and discussion course, and you may bring your laptop if you want to follow along. These 4 sessions are designed for the beginner as a basic road map to understanding where to start and how all the pieces of digital photography fit together.
