Description

Inspiring readers through iconic images and playful copy, the bestselling Read This if You Want to Take Great Photographs has been revised and updated to include new photographers, a brand-new chapter on the art of feeling, and the latest hands-on tips. Striking images from a diverse range of acclaimed contemporary photographers, such as Anastasia Samoylova, Zanele Muholi, Nadine Ijewere, Campbell Addy and Tyler Mitchell, now join the masterpieces of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, Nan Goldin, Dorothea Lange and Martin Parr.

Ideal for users of phone, mirrorless and DSLR cameras, the book is split into six sections, covering composition, exposure, light, lenses and the art of seeing and feeling. Thought-provoking images by iconic photographers serve to illustrate points and encourage readers to try out new ideas.

Today's aspiring photographers want immediacy and see photography as an affordable way of expressing themselves quickly and creatively. This handbook meets their needs, teaching them how to take photographs using professional techniques.
