To get the most out of this book
The point of this publication is that you don't need to have extensive experience before starting out in the world of photo editing. That was the premise of the original Adobe application many versions ago, and today, that idea, with the introduction of so many new AI-driven features, is stronger than ever.
That said, it would be immensely useful to have a fundamental knowledge of how computers operate, including Mac or Windows operating systems, and perhaps an inkling of basic image editing, just to get started. Also, be prepared to experiment with your images as much as you have the time for. It's the best way to learn.
Develop a network of friends or mentors who might be able to help you if you get stuck. To do this, you may find that it's a good idea to join a camera club in order to get help with both your photography and post-processing questions.
Above all, have fun, and experiment as much as you can.
