Inhaltsangabe

In this book, Tom Gallovich shows readers how to use their camera’s exposure controls (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) to establish the focal point of the image and create the overall mood of the shot and choose a particular lens or focal-length setting to massage the way elements in the original scene will appear within the frame. Next, he presents chapters on using shape, color, lines, and arrangement to strengthen the intended visual message. Readers will learn how to best place their primary subject (and in some cases secondary subject) for maximum impact and will discover artistic strategies that reinforce that decision through careful use of color, tone, highlight and shadow, leading lines, curved shapes, and relative size—qualities that will contribute to the overall mood in the image. Copious illustrations emphasize the impact that putting these concepts into play will have on your images—and these are often coupled with images that show how ineffective images are when those important compositional needs are not attended to.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Tom has been photographing for over thirty years. His first camera, a Minolta X-570, was considered a good starter camera in the 1980s. At that time, he just wanted to document nature to create references for his paintings. As his skills and experience grew, he realized that his photos of nature were works of art in and of themselves. Now Tom photographs for the sake of photography. Tom now has hundreds of thousands of images to his credit. He has taught classes and given many workshops at various community colleges. His work has been displayed numerous times at world, state, and local levels. During his commercial and portrait career he photographed over five hundred weddings and thousands of senior and family portraits.
