Adobe Photoshop CC is loaded with powerful photo editing tools, and yet its most powerful features are hidden away. Let me help you tap Photoshop’s most potent tools and begin to work just like a professional photo editor. Why a book about Photoshop Layers?

Used correctly, layers can make your photo editing much simpler and enable you to create effects that would be difficult or even impossible any other way.
