Reader Reviews
This, like it's companion book, Image Effects, is a basic Photoshop 'cookbook. There is little explanation other than the step-by-step instructions. If you like the images and effects then it's the book for you. Personally, I feel it's a bit pricey for what you get, but if it holds value for you, and will be worth the time saved.
