Description
The Basics Photo series comprises a collection of four titles underpinning the fundamental elements of photography: Composition, Lighting, Process and Printing. Aimed at both photography and design students as well as anyone with an interest in photography this series will provide the reader with a comprehensive reference tool. The composition of a photograph is one of the most important elements of photography. A technically perfect shot has no resonance unless it is also beautifully composed. A subject can be enhanced and become something entirely different if considered from a different angle or viewpoint. This first title in the Basics Photo series, Composition is split into five sections studying the basics, people, movement, texture and observation. The book is illustrated throughout and includes cutting-edge modern images, which will inspire and delight its readers.
