Because i'm so envious of people's photoshop skills and would like to beef up some graphics on my blog, i found this cool book at barnes and noble called: Digital Photography (A simple step by step visual guide to taking great photographs and digitally enhancing them using Photoshop Elements 4, PS 7 and PS CS) Fully Revised and Updated Edition by Michael Wright (Hylas Publishing) It was in the clearance bin for ONLY $10
Goes through understanding your digi cam and elements of a good photography, as well as other stuff i haven't gotten to yet. Great pics and short, concise descriptions and explanations.... one of the cool parts was in the intro it says: 'Many people like the ease of a digital camera, but are intimidated by the editing software, and are even further baffled by the technical explanations. Their solution is to put off the editing until a later date: "I will tackle that later, when I have a month to spare to learn all that stuff" (which means never!) If this sounds familiar this book is for you.'
totally me and i'm enjoying reading it
