>Seems like people are looking for magic where there isn't any.

Hi

Not me for one...

The comparisons I put up are as much to show that there are often many
routes for getting from A to B via Photoshop, as to saying any one way is
better.

Sometimes I know exactly how I want an image to look. Sometimes I don't know
the effect I'm looking for until I see it. Different techniques, by their
nature, allow you to explore different sets of variations with varying ease.

Not everyone has such deep understanding of how Photoshop works :-)) I for
one use most of its functions without ever going into the maths behind them.

Some of the best Photoshop users I've met, regularly challenge their ways of
working, looking for that different approach that can lead their creativity
down an untrodden path -- that's where the magic comes in :-))

bye for now
