Learn basic photoshop skills and get comfortable using the essential tools in the world's most powerful photo-editing software. Topics include: resizing and cropping images, creating and editing selections, combining images with layers, adjusting colours, basic retouching and adding text to images.

Resolution and file formats will also be discussed. You will also have the opportunity to work on your personal photos if you like.

Advanced topics, including adjustment layers and layer masks, are briefly demonstrated, just in case you want to glimpse into the vortex of Photoshop's true power. You will not, however, need special glasses or visors to protect your sanity (it's not that kind of vortex).
