Plan to keep this one out in full view on a table, not buried in a bookcase because it’s loaded with beautiful inspiring photos on nearly every page.
Combining the best of the old with the best of the new, conventional technique has a place in today’s digital world to enable a good photographer to become a great one. This book is intended to refine your ability and expand you creatively beyond merely saving/printing photos with little editing via overall intelligently organized material. ‘Quick Fix’ charts are interspersed throughout for a multitude of issues, enabling you to briefly scan across a page or two to find your issue
An excellent reference book, this is best digested in chunks and not read front to back.
The author here assumes the reader arrives with basic photographic understanding, and works upward from there. It’s actually refreshing to find a current book that doesn’t waste space on the elementary. It leads in with some technical info on digital as well as film, cameras, followed by information on PCs, monitors, scanners, printers and software. Not terribly exciting, but if you read a few paragraphs here and there you’ll learn a few things.
From there the book is organized in "topic format" allowing you to quickly find on your present interest, be it photographing buildings, clouds, animals, sports, children, etc. Then it progresses into scanning, color management, cropping, correcting and enhancing images, filters, and other creative processes prior to finalizing your image, and also speaks to certain software.
At the end, there’s also an extensive glossary, a couple of pages of web resources and a list of manufacturer and software websites, as well as some further reading suggestions.
Lastly, there is an extensive index, a real plus for any reference book.
I also have a great assortment of BOOK items for you.
