I did not understand that there are so many ways to colorize a photo. The video kept going fuzzy then clear.

Yeah, not too bad. The instructor is sometimes difficult to understand. It sounds as though he's trying not to talk too loud, but it's causing him to truncate his words and sound unnatural... and is therefore a bit distracting. Likewise, it might be better at the start of each module to show the difference between the original image and what the module will teach you to get to. A quick start up front of before/after can help inform students on what they're trying to achieve, rather than just button presses and tools in the software.

The information about color theory contained within this course – and how it is useful in correcting/adjusting images for both creative expression and final production – is vital to anyone who deals with images on a professional basis. Highly recommended. Thanks, Vladimir.

It's a good, well structured course where I actually learned how to do some stuff. It's the sort of course you need to think about, practice and then come back and go over it again to make sure you understand the ideas.
