Visual Toolbox, The: 60 Lessons for Stronger Photographs (Voices That Matter)
Description
Simply having a certain camera or lens isn’t going to make you a better
photographer. So, what will? Understanding your camera. Thinking differently.
Studying photographs and knowing what they provoke in you, and why. Giving the
craft time to grow. Looking to painters, designers, and others who work in two
dimensions and learning from them. Relentlessly looking for light, lines, and
moments. Making photographs–thousands and thousands of photographs. There’s no
magic bullet to achieving success, but in these pages you will learn the value
of studying, practice, and remembering that your most important assets as an
artist are imagination, passion, patience, receptivity, curiosity, and a
dogged refusal to follow the rules. THE VISUAL TOOLBOX is photographer David
duChemin’s curriculum for learning not just how to use a camera–but how to
make stronger photographs. He has developed 60 lessons, each one a stepping
stone to becoming more proficient with the tools of this art, and the means to
create deeper visual experiences with your images. David introduces you to the
technical side of the craft but quickly moves on to composition, the creative
process, and the principles that have always been responsible for making great
photographs; he shows you these principles and invites you to play with them,
turn them on their heads, and try a different approach to create beautiful,
compelling images with your camera.Features action-oriented micro-chapters
designed to improve your photography immediatelyIncludes explanations of 60
concepts with an assignment for nearly every chapterCovers such topics as
balance, using negative space, exploring color contrast, waiting for the
moment, learning to incorporate mood and motion, and much more Read more
