The APTATS techniques are new
optimization methods designed for the bird and nature photographer who knows basic Photoshop techniques but would like to learn new advanced techniques for optimizing and repairing their images quickly and
without leaving a trace. By following along in the workshop and with the tutorials, you should quickly become comfortable using masks, layers, and transform commands to repair and optimize digital images, Speed, simplicity, and the lack of visible telltale artifacts are the primary goals of the APTATS techniques. You will not believe how easy previously impossible repairs can be accomplished. The beauty behind APTATS are the new techniques using plain basic Photoshop tools and commands.
