I started to use Photoshop just for two months now, and I just came to this fruitful tutorial from the Adobe Photoshop official page for beginner tutorials. And I can say that it was amazing. For me that had already learned the basics of software, her amazing lessons were a chance to dig even way deeper into the color theory and light/shadow/color aspects of photo editing/compositing. Besides from that, it was a real inspiration on how we can use our simplest tools and options we have even at "home" to just start building our little home-studio and start photo shooting, compositing and eventually CREATING inspiring, mesmerizing artworks. HAVE FUN CREATIVES! =)
