Book Synopsis The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography by : Glenn Randall
Download or read book The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography written by Glenn Randall and published by Rocky Nook, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography teaches photographers how to convert their visual peak experiences-moments of extraordinary natural beauty that evoke a sense of wonder and awe-into stunning images that elicit the same awestruck emotion in their viewers. Randall is an experienced wilderness photographer, and whether you want to venture into the mountains for once-in-a-lifetime shots of raw nature, or simply hone your landscape photography skills from the safety of your back deck, Randall explains the art, science and craft of creating astounding images.Randall begins by focusing on the art of landscape photography. He describes his three-step process for composing a photograph and shows how good composition is an organic process that begins with rules but ultimately transcends them. Randall then explores the science behind successful landscape photographs, which requires understanding key concepts from geography, optics, vision, and psychology. These concepts include: Understanding how the position of the sun at sunrise and sunset varies throughout the year, which will help you plan when and where to shoot. Understanding optics to predict where rainbows will appear, how polarizers will interact with reflections, and where to find spectacular light. Understanding how to use topographic maps and computerized mapping tools to help you find the most promising shooting locations in the wilderness. Understanding how our visual system analyzes images and the psychology of how we view art. These insights will help you produce successful photographs. Exposure is a central aspect of the craft of landscape photography, and Randall tackles the challenges of this topic from every angle-from tips on calculating exposures in the field, to achieving correct exposure in high-contrast lighting situations, to the best digital darkroom techniques.Great landscape photography can be mastered with practice and by applying the techniques taught in this book. The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography is intended for those who already understand the basics of photography and who are ready to master the finer nuances of creating magnificent landscape photographs.

Download or read book Longs Peak written by Joe Regenbogen and published by Milford House Press. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gordon appears to be living the good life. He is married, has two delightful children, owns a home in the western suburbs of St. Louis, and teaches popular history classes at the local high school. As Gordon approaches the midlife phase of his life, though, an event occurs one winter evening that leaves him wracked by guilt and remorse. Gordon's life soon plummets into a separation from his wife and a descent into mediocrity in his classroom. He only sees his children on Saturday afternoons and starts to question his veracity as a father. Gordon can barely face his own reflection in the mirror and even has visions of ending everything in a fiery crash. As the school year comes to a close, an old college friend reaches out to Gordon. Ben has problems of his own and has retreated to his family cabin on the western edge of Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. Although the two friends haven't communicated in years, Ben invites Gordon to spend the summer with him in the Rockies. Gordon quickly recognizes that a road trip might be his salvation. Over the next two months, the natural beauty of the American West proves to be seductive. Shorter hikes grow longer and the two friends are soon making plans to relive their grueling hike up Longs Peak, the tallest mountain in the Northern Rockies. Facing this challenge might finally provide Gordon with the strength to confront his past and to face his future.
