There is simply too much to Photoshop for a body to assimilate. Keep in mind that there are very different tools included in the program that the average user will NEVER use! And a completely different set of tools to be used by graphic artists rather than by photographers, and vice versa. Rather like a word processing program where you and I might only use the spell checker and adjust margins, while some executive secretary might need to make boilerplate letters and mail merge them with her information in a data base, etc., etc., etc. We simply never use 90% of what's included with these programs. If we DO need to use it, once, we can look up how to do that one specific thing, do it, then forget about it until we need it again a few years later.

As a photographer, you only really need to concern yourself with the post production work flow, which is really pretty simple, and a few key tricks to make people look better ( if that is what you are shooting. No need to smooth the wrinkles on an elephant.) These are things that you do to EVERY photograph.

Keep it simple...
