Posterization
Posterise tool is quite frequently found in photo editing applications and is very rarely used. In my opinion it is a tool that has been carried over without much thought in the present day photo-editors. However it does come of use at times.
Choosing your Digital Darkroom!
If you are assembling your own computer or searching for a ready to use system, the choices available can be quite confusing. Go by these basic rules and you can have a fairly powerful computer for your photography requirements.
Color Management
How colors are interpreted and shown in the present day work-flow is a matter of confusion for most. When I was trying to explain to a friend about color management, I was faced with the problem of how to get the whole thing down to easily understandable terms.

Photography getting lost to Photo-editing
Darkroom has been replaced by photo-editing on computers. Sadly, a lot of newcomers are now replacing photography with photo-editing. I’ll refer to this habit as photo-shopping since that is what people have come to call it. In fact that is another achievement of the Adobe Photoshop software, to be able to penetrate to such an extent and get known to the masses. My sincere advice to all budding photographers is to start photographing and reduce photoshopping.
