Autor Jack Dykinga
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2013
Author and internationally known photographer Jack Dykinga uses a teach-by-example approach to share the art of creating interesting, well-composed images. He examines problems that often get in the way of producing great photographs, and discusses solutions. He provides examples of powerful images, juxtaposed against flawed images, to teach the finer points of creating successful compositions. His images illustrate the importance of training the eye to exclude the extraneous. Other topics covered include light and shadow, lens choice, framing, negative space, illusion, and many more. Dykinga encourages us to use photography to communicate: "Photography is a marvelous language that crosses linguistic borders as a universal, powerful, and direct communication. As photographers, we see something we find interesting and simply want to share it." Readers will discover innovative ways to create stimulating and powerful compositions to better communicate their intended artistic messages. Each of Dykinga's photographs inspires creativity, while perfectly demonstrating the concepts being discussed. Filled with stunning, large-format images throughout, this book is sure to motivate, teach, and excite photographers of all skill levels.
