Image editing has become a crucial element in the photographic workflow.
Image editing tools, most notably Photoshop, are usually sophisticated
and deep applications, and are fairly expensive. The only open source
tool in this market is the GIMP, which has developed into a powerful,
multiplatform system running on Linux, Mac OS X, and Microsoft Windows.

GIMP 2.6 for Photographers is a beginner's guide to the only open
source image editing tool that provides a low-cost alternative to
expensive programs such as Photoshop. Topics include the basics of image
editing and simple adjustments, as well as advanced techniques using
layers and masks, stitching panoramic images, and preparing high-quality
black and white images. The most important editing functions are presented
in individual, easy-to-follow workshops.

GIMP 2.6 for Photographers has evolved from classroom materials that
the author developed and taught in courses and workshops on image
editing with the GIMP.
