Photoshop and Elements > Photoshop LAB Color Book
Books by Dan Margulis

I'm surprised that no one has posted questions here. There might be a couple of reasons.
Either Mike's Curvemeister fans have completely understood Dan's book, or no one bought the book, or no one knows enough to ask questions.
I'll criticize the section heading by suggesting that the LAB book is the 2nd book by Margulis that you should read, the first being "Professional Photoshop 4th Ed." That's not to say that "LAB" isn't a good book, it's just that unless you read PE4 first, you're going to have some problems with the depth of material in "LAB". Both are essential reading if you're serious about getting the most from color control of your images and seeing one of the main driving forces behind Mike's great Curvemeister plug in.

When you have read all the articles, you could have seen that 2 persons have such a book.
I have one, and the other person is a whoman named jodz.
I have Photoshop elements 4.0 and could not do everything written in the book.
Very pitty of course. But it is a nice book.
I have bought now "the hidden power of Photoshop elements 4.0", but I think I have trouble again.
Then my Photoshop elements is in dutch and some tools are written with english language, so it worked not all.
I must write richard Lynch how about that and what he cna do with that.
Do you have a LAB plugin for P.S. 40 , so I could workout the most things in the Book ?

Although I no longer use Elements, I have the greatest respect for Richard Lynch who has added several "essential" plug ins to Elements to bring it up to near Photoshop level for photographers.
Of course Curvemeister does a lot of that, and I would consider it equally essential for Elements users.

I have started working with his book in an attempt to deepen my understand this LAB process... There was a discussion thread on a forum called Digital Grin at the end of last year that explored it pretty much in depth.

I tried pasting the address above, not sure it will work. Anyway, just interested to see if anyone would like to do a similar discussion here??
Frits:
Luminous,
thanks for the address.
It is difficult enough for me to understand the whole thing.
But I go reading what is written there on that working address.
