Description:
Mastering Black &
White Photography is the definitive work
on how to shoot black & white images on today's sophisticated digital SLR
and compact digital cameras and smart phones.
Jargon-busting
text, illustrated with the author's own stunning images, explains the theory
behind digital photography, along with a guide to the equipment and software
needed to take outstanding images. The book explains the basics of exposure and
good composition, file types, manipulating captured images using popular
software, and applying special effects (such as split toning, simulating film
grain, lith prints and using cyanotypes). A printing chapter discusses
outputting and displaying images.
Julia Alvarez, on writing:
But the sensibility of
the writer, whether fiction or poetry, comes from paying attention.
I tell my
students that writing doesn't begin when you sit down to write.
It's a way of
being in the world, and the essence of it is paying attention.
– Julia Alvarez.
