Summary

In this chapter, we moved through a short series of exercises to demonstrate something of the power of Elements, starting with a simple brightness problem, then stepping it up to fixing underexposure in a RAW file, simple spot retouching in the sky (sensor spots created by dirt getting into the camera body) to color correction and contrast enhancement to full-on skin repair, before finishing up with an assemblage of images, brought together to make a digital illustration.

In the next chapter, you'll learn how to work with some of Element's excellent project-based tools. Essentially, these comprise a number of fairly complex actions that have been semi-automated to make both the learning curve less steep for the user and to make the results appear professional. You'll love how they are both easy to use yet allow you to produce awesome results with very little prior experience.
