Photography guide: composition, light and philosophy.
5-star review by Readers' Favorite!
Throwing away your camera when you want to be a photographer may sound weird at first. Still, all this book is about is for you to escape the first significant barrier in photography, which is photography gear.
We understand now that an essential part of becoming a photographer is to master light and be able to create images by using it appropriately. That is all there is to it. At least the artisan part of it. You need to understand how light represents real-life forms and use it within your photographic frame to create a beautiful, attractive visual stimulus for human emotions.
