Download or read book Expressive Nature Photography written by Brenda Tharp and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographer and teacher Brenda Tharp marries photography craft with artistic vision to help intermediate photographers translate what they see into a personal impression of a subject in nature. Using single images, along with before-and-after and with-or-without examples, Expressive Nature Photography teaches how to make exposures that are creative, not necessarily correct. Inspiring photographers to get out early and stay out late, this book explains how to use light, an essential element of outdoor photography. Readers will learn how to “see in the dark,” use filters to create very long exposures, create a natural effect using light painting, photograph night skies and moonlit landscapes, and make the best use of available natural light. This book also covers how to use shutter speeds to express motion and capture the energy of fast-moving subjects, such rushing streams, ocean swells, and bounding wildlife. A chapter on the art of visual flow discusses how to create compositions that direct the viewer's eye through the frame for maximum impact. Photographers will develop a sense of when to break the "rules" of composition, how to use elements to frame subjects, what to include and exclude in the frame, how to create the feeling of depth and dimension in a scene, and how to push the boundaries of composition to make memorable nature images that capture and convey fresh viewpoints. High-tech cameras can help create a good exposure and focused image, but they can't replace the artist's eye for composition, visual depth, and design, nor their instinct for knowing when to click the shutter. There are many books on photography technique focused on technical quality, but Expressive Nature Photography goes beyond the technical. It guides the way to pulling emotion and meaning out of a dynamic landscape, a delicate macro study, or an outstanding nighttime image.

Download or read book Expanding Universe written by Owen Edwards and published by Taschen America Llc. This book was released on 2015 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En explorant ses moindres aspects, des trous noirs aux exoplanètes, le télescope Hubble a changé la face de l'astronomie, mais aussi notre propre conscience du cosmos. Pour le 25e anniversaire de la mise en orbite du télescope Hubble, TASCHEN rend hommage aux images de Hubble en tant qu'exploits scientifiques et que chefs-d'oeuvre photographiques. Ces images de très haute résolution, obtenues malgré la quasi absence de lumière, ont répondu à certaines des questions les plus captivantes sur le temps et l'espace, tout en révélant de nouveaux mystères comme l'étrange "énergie sombre", qui accélère sans cesse l'expansion de l'univers. La précision extrême de ces observations se reflète dans celle avec laquelle TASCHEN les a reproduites : les illustrations fascinent par leurs teintes irisées et leurs formes à la fois fragiles, immenses et élégantes. Cette collection est accompagnée d'un essai du critique et spécialiste de la photo Owen Edwards et d'un entretien avec Zoltan Levay, qui explique comment les images ont été composées. Les anciens astronautes Charles F. Bolden, Jr. et John Mace Grunsfeld, qui font autorité dans ce domaine, donnent également leur vision personnelle de l'héritage de Hubble et de l'avenir de l'exploration spatiale.

Download or read book Pale Blue Dot written by Carl Sagan and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Fascinating . . . memorable . . . revealing . . . perhaps the best of Carl Sagan’s books.”—The Washington Post Book World (front page review) In Cosmos, the late astronomer Carl Sagan cast his gaze over the magnificent mystery of the Universe and made it accessible to millions of people around the world. Now in this stunning sequel, Carl Sagan completes his revolutionary journey through space and time. Future generations will look back on our epoch as the time when the human race finally broke into a radically new frontier—space. In Pale Blue Dot, Sagan traces the spellbinding history of our launch into the cosmos and assesses the future that looms before us as we move out into our own solar system and on to distant galaxies beyond. The exploration and eventual settlement of other worlds is neither a fantasy nor luxury, insists Sagan, but rather a necessary condition for the survival of the human race. “Takes readers far beyond Cosmos . . . Sagan sees humanity’s future in the stars.”—Chicago Tribune
