Thank you Colin, excellent work.
Loved your tutorials on Curves and Adjustment layers. I never knew you could use adjustment layers the way and I am going to try it. I am practically self taught in Photoshop but after seeing your tutorials my interest was exacerbated and all my work have improved so intensely.
Thank you Colin for your tutorials. I am a beginner and I appreciate your videos! From San Diego, California.
I appreciate your tutorial Colin and look forward to trying them out – especially the shadows – might be a big help for some of my real estate photography. Thanks for the e-book! I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Come and see our Balloon Fiesta in October.

Excellent tutorial–enjoy learning from watching your videos. Greetings from Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Come over to our neck of the woods to do some shooting in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
That sounds exciting! I was recently in Nashville
Virtually self taught in Photoshop largely using your tutorials, they are excellent, currently from Phu Quoi Vietnam
Hi Colin, I’m from Australia and a subscriber to all your tutorials. This has been another great tutorial like all of yours. I have a question about a special effect. I would like to show you a picture of the sort of effect I’m talking about. Where is the best place to send you an image and show you which effect I mean? I have virtually done all your free tutorials and haven’t found one similar to what I was after as yet, so would like to ask you about it. Where can I email you?
By the way, I’m a primary (your elementary) teacher in a school here. I sent a grant and received licenses for some of the photoshop elements premium application to teach small groups of my upper primary students. Years 6 and 7. I thought “elements” may be a better starting point for them.
Please send me an email about this, thanks Colin
Hi Colon,
I have a love/hate relationship with photoshop. I love learning and working in Photoshop, but I hate how much I seem to forget! I’m glad I can go to you website to check out what to do again.
Thank you for your easy-going, clear presentations.
I’m from the beautiful Central Coast (about 1hr north of Sydney), Australia
Hi Colin. Writing this from Sheffield, UK.
Thanks for ‘Adjustment Layers’ another great tutorial. Learnt so much in such a short time.
Never miss viewing a tutorial.
Can I ask you? Is possible that you could add written instructions to more of your video tutorials.
At 72 going on 73 my memory is not what it was.
Keep up the great work.
Regards.
Yes, my goal is to have written steps for ALL of them. I just haven’t had time to do the newest ones, it takes a lot of time. I tried to get someone to help, but it didn’t work out.
