Covers the basics of digital glamour, such as what kind of camera you need, making and shooting in a home-studio, and how to shoot digital glamour shots outdoors. Chapters in the book cover commercial glamour - adverts, fashion and magazine features - lingerie, pin-ups, the nude, fetish and more futuristic glamour shots. It also includes a discussion of post-production and touching up. Structured around the three main areas of shooting the image, enhancing the image and enjoying the image, the Digital Photography series makes the world of digital imaging simple while concentrating on the photographic aspect. With the aid of inspirational images we are shown in easy steps how the image was taken, manipulated on the computer and output in the desired form.
