Summary
All aspects of photography are important to the person holding the camera, but to the
person in front of the camera one aspect looms large: skin tone representation. Only
those with a blemish-free skin are looking for complete accuracy in this respect, but skin
color, too, is always noticeable and the slightest deviation will be apparent to many viewers.
Many of the packages and plug-ins described in this chapter allow you to remove
wrinkles and blemishes; some will accommodate even the most minor changes to skin
color and saturation. Check out PhotoTune for its SkinTune technology, with its library
of more than 125,000 skin colors (in Chapter 9, “Quick-Fix Software”).
