What Photoshop is designed to do

 
Adobe Photoshop is an image-editing program. It’s designed to help you edit
images — digital or digitized images, photographs, and otherwise. This is the
core purpose of Photoshop. Over the years, Photoshop has grown and developed,
adding features that supplement its basic operations. But at its heart,
Photoshop is an image editor. At its most basic, Photoshop’s workflow goes
something like this: You take a picture, you edit the picture, and you print the
picture .
Take photo, edit photo, print photo. Drink coffee (optional).
Whether captured with a digital camera, scanned into the computer, or created
from scratch in Photoshop, your artwork consists of tiny squares of
color, which are picture elements called pixels. (Pixels and the nature of digital
imaging are explored in depth in coming lessons Photoshop is all about changing
and adjusting the colors of those pixels — collectively, in groups, or one
at a time — to make your artwork look precisely how you want it to look.
(Photoshop, by the way, has no Good Taste or Quality Art filter. It’s up to you
to decide what suits your artistic or personal vision and what meets your
professional requirements.) Some very common Photoshop image-editing
tasks are shown in Figure 1-2: namely, correcting red-eye and minimizing
