"Photoshop has completely revolutionized our visual culture. Artists now use Photoshop to create complex imagery that would have been impossible 20 years ago. It has also profoundly changed the art of photo retouching, turning a labor intensive process into an artful and often controversial digital workflow."

A Canon DSLR in Auto mode produces amazing photos, but real creative control comes when you step outside of Auto. Learn the basic elements of Exposure and how simple adjustments create beautiful photo effects.

Compfight is an image search engine tailored to efficiently locate images for blogs, comps, inspiration, and research.

Great explanation of how ISO is a factor in exposure.

Thousands of free textures. Requires registration (free). Daily download limit of 15 MB to reduce piracy of images. 

This is so awesome! Thanks Peter!
