Book excerpt: Harald Mante, one of the most distinguished teachers of the photographic arts in Germany and an internationally recognized master of photography, brings his teaching to us in the English language for the first time in more than 30 years. In The Photograph Mante explains the elements that are essential to achieving the highest level of visual design in photographs. This book is geared toward the serious intermediate and advanced photographer who strives to create outstanding images. While a deep understanding of photographic techniques is required in order to master photography, technical knowleEAe alone is not sufficient to create outstanding images. Beyond the technical aspects, the crucial elements that determine the quality and strength of a photograph are the content of the image and its organization within the image frame. This is where the "art" of photography comes into play. Truly creative photography is based upon knowleEAe and mastery of design, and insight into how the viewer perceives images. The creative photographer can exploit this knowleEAe and push image making in new directions. In this book, Mante explores the principles of line, shape, point, color, contrast, composition, and design in significantly greater depth and at a higher level than most any book available to date. He also covers a number of techniques to enhance expressiveness in a photograph and support the photographer's intentions. These in-depth lessons are beautifully illustrated with more than 750 images from Mante's own portfolio, including over 160 diagrams. The Photograph is a unique book that is sure to become an invaluable reference for anyone involved in photography-from the hobbyist to the professional; for both the digital and analog photographer; and for those practicing, studying, criticizing, or administering in the visual arts. This second edition has been extensively revised and updated, and includes 60 new images and illustrations. Also included are new chapters that cover analyzing shapes and colors and a discussion of the square image format.

Download or read book History of Color Photography Classic Reprint written by Joseph Solomon Friedman and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Color Photography This book has been produced in response to an insistent demand from color workers for exhaustive information on the many forms of research that have developed the various color processes of photography into the usable condition in which they are found today. This subject was covered very completely by Professor Wall up to the time of the publication of his famous book, "The History of Three-Color Photography," in 1925. But the demand for that work was so great that it has long been out of print and its information is no longer generally available. Even if it were, color photography has progressed so rapidly in the past twenty years that information as of that date could tell no more than half the story of today. To the stupendous task of ferreting out and compiling into coherent and usable form all this accumulated data, Dr. Friedman brings a splendid preparation. After graduating from Harvard and taking his doctorate at the University of Chicago, he plunged directly into color work on the staff of Technicolor which was then evolving its famous process in Boston. Through the years he has been actively identified with the development of many forms of color photography, and is at present on the research staff of Ansco. He has long been known as a prolific and authoritative writer on this subject, and of late years his department in American Photography has been a general clearinghouse of information about its latest aspects. This book will be found invaluable to anyone who needs the complete record of what has gone before in any existing department of color photography. Starting with the earliest ideas of colorimetry, it traces the development of all the laboratory and commercial processes by which color has been evolved to its present-day applications, enumerating the underlying principles, describing the technique, and giving the history of the patents that have been issued concerning them. The record is as complete as it is humanly possible to achieve, and contains compactly compiled and correlated information that is nowhere else available without very extensive research. For anyone who wants to get a detailed and comprehensive picture of color photography as a whole, or who needs specific information about any of its special developments, no effort has been spared to make this book as complete and valuable as possible.
