Book Synopsis LIFE Guide to Digital Photography by : Joe McNally
Download or read book LIFE Guide to Digital Photography written by Joe McNally and published by Life. This book was released on 2010-10-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photography has been the business and the passion of LIFE since the original weekly magazine's inception in 1936, and it continues to be the business and passion of LIFE Books and LIFE.com in the new millennium. But photography has surely changed during these many decades. The rigs and gear of old have given way-first slowly, then all at once-to sleek miracle machines that process pixels and have made the darkroom obsolete. The casual photog puts eye to lens, sets everything on auto and captures a photograph that is . . . perfectly fine. One of LIFE's master shooters-in fact, the final in the long line of distinguished LIFE staff photographers-was Joe McNally, and he has always believed that with a little preparation and care, with a dash of enthusiasm and daring added to the equation, anyone can make a better photo-anyone can turn a "keeper" into a treasure. This was true in days of yore, and it's true in the digital age. Your marvelous new camera, fresh from its box, can indeed perform splendid feats. Joe explains in this book how to take best advantage of what it was designed to do, and also when it is wise to outthink your camera or push your camera-to go for the gold, to create that indelible family memory that you will have blown up as large as the technology will allow, and that will hang on the wall forevermore. As the storied LIFE photographer and photo editor John Loengard points out in his eloquent foreword to this volume, there are cameras and there are cameras, and they've always been able to do tricks. And then there is photography. Other guides may give you the one, two, three of producing a reasonably well exposed shot, but Joe McNally and the editors of LIFE can give you that, and then can show you how to make a picture. In a detailed, friendly, conversational, anecdotal, sometimes rollicking way, that's what they do in these pages. Prepare to click.

Book excerpt: Master The Art of Photography Composition! Learn All The Right Tricks to Make You A Better Photographer Today (FREE Bonus Inside!) *** Photography Composition - By Amazon #1 Best-Selling Author James Carren *** In "Photography Composition," you will find all you need to know to learn the basics of composition. It will teach you the proper terms and ways to apply rules that you might already know instinctively, yet not quite understand why they work the way they do. Here Is A Preview of What You'll Learn In This Book... Happy accidents: This tip teaches you how to pay attention to the following rules in order to replicate happy accidents, and to be able to more purposefully craft your photographs. Rule of thirds: This basic rule of composition is often the first to be learned in many art classes. It teaches you where to place points of interest in your photos. Leading lines: This tip shows you how lines can help move a viewer's eye around the composition. Move around: Don't just stick to one position or vantage point when you shoot. Moving around gives you access to different perspectives, which might actually bring better compositions than what you first assumed. Horizon lines: Different from leading lines, horizon lines break up the frame into two parts. Shape: You will learn how to utilize shape that already exists in the frame, and how to create it where you want it using points of interest. Foreground and background: This tip also mentions usage of mid-ground, and why you should take advantage of the entire depth of your frame, not just the immediate foreground. Weight: You can give weight to your photos by placing a "heavier" subject to one side, or the top or bottom of a frame. Juxtaposition: Juxtaposition has to do with both the composition of your photo as well as the content of your photo. It basically means that you will place two opposite things side by side. This could be anything, from darkness and light, complementary colors, or things that have differing symbolic meaning. Balance: Balance, ironically, you may think, is achieved in odd numbers. Tension: Tension also often has a lot to do with the content of a photo as well. You can create tension by examining the relationships of your subjects and composing them accordingly. Framing: Framing is so very important in composition. It can dramatically alter a viewer's perception of a scene. Also, especially with people, it's important not to cut part of your subject out of the frame. Color: Finally there is color, which can often be used as a crutch by new photographers. However, with this tip you will learn how to properly control it and use it to your advantage for maximum visual and emotional effect. While it may seem overwhelming at first, combining all of these elements will soon become a snap once you learn to recognize them. As your awareness grows, so will your ability to utilize them, and even artfully and successfully break rules as well. So hurry! Take action, scroll back up the page and get your very own copy today!
