Clean Up Those Digital Photos!

Optimize your digital camera images in Photoshop

You don't have to look very far to realize that digital photography is all the rage these days. Consumers are flocking to take their digital snapshots and print them on their Epson inkjet printers. In addition, the business world is getting in on the act too, as insurance agents, sales reps, and insurance adjusters are all using digital cameras in their daily jobs.

The only problem with digital cameras is that while they may show you an instant picture with the push of a button, the picture they show you isn't very good. They tend to lack contrast, and sharpness, and the color can shift as well.

This column will walk you through a standard image optimization for digital photos, with a little photo retouching thrown in at the end for good measure.
