Photo Editing & Special Effects Software?
Hi, I would like to know what is the best software that I can edit digital photos and add special effects all in one package? I am looking to get into photography and I was looking at a friends wedding album and saw some pretty neat photography tricks (their picture in a glass bowl, the background blurred out, a black & white photo of them in the park except the tree had red leaves, etc.). I don't care of the cost, I just want the best program with the most features. Recomedations are much appreciated! Thanks!
Well if you read any photo journals you see everyone using Photoshop. It probably the most used program for fixing up pictures. It has a pretty good learning curve and it is a complex program to use. It is also pretty expensive. i finally got it, but am still learning how to use it effectivly.
You could try its little brother Photoshop Essentials. Its under $100 and does a lot. One thing I know it is missing is layers and I find layers one of the better features to have when modifying pictures.
Corel sells a product call Paint Shop Pro. I've been using this for several years with a lot of success. I've been able take photoshop tutorials and duplicate the stuff in PSP, so it has most of the features, though I'm sure not all, that Photoshop has. It is about $100.
I would use PSP before I would used Expression. But if money is no object then I would suggest getting Photoshop. There are a lot more tutorials for doing thing in Photoshop than in Paint Shop Pro and like I said, if you read any photo magazines, that's what you'll hear everyone talking about.
Hope this helps.
