Light
in the Landscape
Peter Watson, one of Britain's most talented landscape photographers,
has produced here a collection of breathtaking beauty. The unique
character of the British landscape is celebrated in over 100
exquisite images which capture the true essence of Britain's
countryside, towns and villages. "Light in the Landscape"
addresses the creative art of photography, using light to maximise
the beauty of nature throughout the year and in every weather.
It reveals the techniques used by leading photographers to remove
the mystery that shrouds the creation of distinctive photographs.
There is always more to a photograph than meets the eye; Peter
Watson's inspirational commentary reveals the preparation and
thinking that lies behind every picture. Every photograph is
fully captioned, giving details of the film, lens, aperture,
shutter speed and filters used.
Creative
Nature and Outdoor Photography
Professional and amateur photographers alike will find an array
of strategies in this guide that demonstrates how to use classic
visual design principles to create strong, compelling, nature
photos. Veteran photographer and naturalist Brenda Tharp presents
a full-colour guide that incorporates classic design principles
with a deeper understanding of the natural world and its moments.
While many photographers may be experts with the technical aspects
of photography, they must also know how to incorporate visual
design, strong composition, mood, and bold use of colour in
order to take their work to the next level. Learning to capture
the moment in nature, which, as all photographers know, is an
unpredictable subject at best, is the primary focus of this
reference. Readers will find not only dozens of specific techniques
for effective outdoor photography, but also practical advice
for creating photographs that are emotionally compelling and,
in turn, an artistic success. Individual chapters are devoted
to such topics as "Light - The Raw Material", "The
Elements of Visual Design", "Using Color Effectively",
and "Putting It All Together". Plus, clear and to-the-point
exercises along with 200 full-colour reproductions aim to inspire
readers to achieve more creative, more expressive and more personal
photographs. Photograph
