PHOTOGRAPHING LANDSCAPES by John Hedgecoe
Landscape photography is ever popular and the subject matter is accessible, yet most books about it take the form of portfolios offering very little practical advice. So when you are confronted with a breathtaking landscape that you want to capture on film, you are faced with a confusion of choices - how shall I compose the shot, which exposure will be most successful, which lens shall I use, what film speed is best for the conditions? this extensively revised new edition of the Hedgecoe classic Photographing Landscapes offers a systematic and inspirational solution to such situations. Using over 300 photographs as examples, John Hedgecoe takes you through the technical considerations and creative decisions that produced his most successful landscape imagery. With tips on equipment, photographic controls, how to really see, and how to identify the natural factors that shape the composition of the landscape, this book will change the way you look at your surroundings.
