Photoshop 201: Beyond the Basics

Take the Photoshop basics for photographers course to level 2,in this 4 hour photography masterclass. Building upon Photoshop 101, the basics, this class adds upon the original training with the next steps you’ll need to know. You’ll learn more about Photoshop and taking your photography editing beyond the basics.

There was a huge amount of detail in this class. I feel as though I have a better understanding of which tools to use for selections and healing, and how to use layers and masks.
