Howdy:
Matt made a new book dedicated to Layers Only. This book according to amazon.com will be available early Feb.2008. I relly look foward to that book for Matt is an excellent teacher.

Don. Thanks for the info. I really like Matt's video tutorials and I will look for the book when it is released in February.

Thanks for the heads up Don.
Just pre-ordered the book on Amazon.

Thanks Don, I will check that out. I got an e-mail the other day from Amazon on Scott Kelby's new book as well, The Digital Photography Book, Volume 2. It is available on January 5th and on sale for $16.49. Regular price will be $24.99

Kim,

Do you know if Scott's book have all different things in or is it merely an 'upgrade'? I really liked the first one.

Bayla, I didn't check the offer but since you asked I did and the book is now $10 off, $14.99. The e-mail I had was dated the 23rd. Here is a link to the Amazon ad for it. Here also is a part of the description from Amazon

"In Volume 2, Scott adds entirely new chapters packed with Plain English tips on using flash, shooting close up photography, travel photography, shooting people, and even how to build a studio from scratch, where he demystifies the process so anyone can start taking pro-quality portraits today! Plus, he's got full chapters on his most requested topics, including loads of tips for landscape photographers, wedding photographers, and there's an entire chapter devoted to sharing some of the pro's secrets for making your photos look more professional, no matter what you're shooting."

Don, this is the info on the book that I found if anyone wants to know more.

When Photoshop guru Matt Kloskowski was asked why he wrote this book, he replied, “It’s simple: I wanted to write the Photoshop book that I wished was around when I was learning Photoshop”. You’ve always known that layers were the key to understanding Photoshop, and now you have a resource to show you exactly how. With Matt’s clear, easy-to-follow, and concise writing style you’ll learn about:

• Working with and managing multiple layers
• Building multiple layered images
• Blending layers together
• Exactly which of the 25+ Blend Modes you need to worry about (there’s just a few)
• Layer Masking and just how easy it is.
• Using layers to enhance and retouch your photos
• All of the tips and tricks that make using layers a breeze.

If you want to finally understand layers in Photoshop, this book is the one you’ve been waiting for.

Glad to help.

Thanks Kim for the info on the book, that is very nice of you.
