Description
This is a newly revised edition of the classic book The Art of Photography: An Approach to Personal Expression (originally published in 1994), which has often been described as the most readable, understandable, and complete textbook on photography. The book has been completely updated to address digital issues throughout. With well over 100 beautiful photographic illustrations in both black-and-white and color, as well as numerous charts, graphs, and tables, this book presents the world of photography to beginner, intermediate, and advanced photographers seeking to make a personal statement through the medium of photography. Without talking down to anyone, or talking over anyone's head, Barnbaum presents how-to techniques for both digital and traditional approaches in a clear, concise, and easy to understand manner. He goes well beyond the technical, as he delves deeply into the philosophical, expressive, and creative aspects of photography so often avoided in other books. Bruce Barnbaum is recognized as one of the world's finest landscape and architectural photographers, and for decades has been considered one of the best instructors in the field of photography. This latest incarnation of his textbook, which has evolved, grown, and been refined over the past 35 years, will prove to be an ongoing, invaluable photographic reference for years to come. It is truly the resource of choice for the thinking photographer. Topics include: - Elements of Composition - Visualization - Light and Color - Filters - The Digital Zone System - The Zone System for Film - Black-and-White - The Print and Presentation - Exploding Photographic Myths - Artistic Integrity - Realism, Abstraction, and Art - Creativity and Intuition - A Personal Philosophy - And much, much more...
