ABSTRACT

Introduction In this tech nical chapter, I will be discuss ing the various ways and means by which one manages, edits and dissem in ates photo graphs taken in the field. This chapter is not meant to be a defin it ive chapter on postprocessing, as entire books can be dedic ated to learn ing the soft ware for the manage ment, editing and storing of digital photo graphs. And there are such books, like that of Evening (2015) for Adobe Photoshop, Bradley (2015) for Adobe Lightroom and Fox and Smith (2016) for a general intro duc tion to digital post-processing. Instead, I will be cover ing specific elements of digital post-processing that can enhance photo graphs typic ally taken in the field, without delving too deeply into the detailed tech nical aspects. In other words, this chapter should give you enough inform a tion to prepare and submit photo graphs for public a tion in academic journ als and public a tions.
