Hi all,
This is my first post. But have been looking around more lately since I got CS3. Hobbies are too expensive.  (ok, so I bought it off a friend) I have fiddled with pictures since Paint Shop Pro 6, JasC. I have started getting pretty serious about it lately and have done a lot of work for co-workers of old family photos and such, along with my own family photos.
On to my question. I feel a little burned out creatively, tired of the same old Gaussian blur effect and would like to expand my creative and knowledge horizons. Can anyone recommend a good Photoshop book for teaching and ideas? There are just so many I wanted to come to a community instead of taking a chance hoping it helps.
Thank you for the help!
Rob |

In Australia we have a magazine /book that is sold by newsagents called
"Adobe Photoshop and then the subject they will cover in that issue put out by Focus Guide, Future Publishing afuture network pic group company UK to contact my book says
enquiries@derwenthoward.com.au this may or may not help the information in these books is great and each book come with a disc on which are tutorials and all sorts of good stuff.
Subjects covered include Enhancing Landscapes, Managing colour, Handling filters etc etc each month a new book comes out so you can pick the ones you want to learn about.
Hope this is of some assistance

I can recommend Deke McClelland's Photoshop One-on-One series, it features tips and tricks but is mainly geared towards being a guide to Photoshop's features and commands.
