Photography

Revised with new content and photographs, this all-inclusive guide to lighting for photographers is organised thematically by types of lighting and lighting technique, with practical and inspirational illustrations from popular subjects such as portrait, landscape, travel and animal photography. Technical information covered includes: methods of metering light and achieving correct exposure, and why reflectors are so important; the use of natural daylight, both indoors and out; the use of artificial light; and creative techniques to push photographic results beyond the realms of the snapshot. The book also includes a detailed but clear guide to studio lighting equipment.
