There is a very well known saying that says you cannot make a Silk purse out of a Sow’s ear. Now this saying or something similar gets said quite often in relation to photography and the images we produce, but we wonder if that old saying is still entirely true. Modern software is now so powerful that we can improve almost any image in some way or another, but can we make a Silk Purse out of a Sows ear?

As long as the image is sharp enough and we are using powerful software like Photoshop CS-3 we think that this old saying could be challenged. Of course there are two issues we have to grapple with in our digital photography.

The first is knowing what needs to be done to give us the improvements we would like and then how to create those changes via our software. Well, the techniques are fairly simple ones and once we learn a technique or two, they can be used in a variety of different circumstances and different subjects.

What we need to do is to take just one step at a time and work through a manipulation in some sort of order. Rarely is a great image made with the use of one tool. More often we need to make a series of small changes and it’s only when we add up all those small changes and see the final result that the Silk purse can appear.

On this DVD we take images that, more often than not, would be left unseen or even discarded. So, perhaps we can make a Silk Purse out of a Sows Ear after all. However, that is for you to decide.
