Curso fantástico. La profe super exhaustiva y clara en sus explicaciones. De hecho aprendí más de lo que esperaba. Bravo!
Este curso es oro puro, regularmente me aburro con los cursos de photoshop porque ven cosas genéricas o exageradas, pero aquí es retoque de retrato al 100%, aparte de tips y más cosas. Incluso aunque la foto de origen no sea análoga, vale muchísimo.
