Inhaltsangabe

Written for the photographer who strives to achieve a higher level of results in their work, Take Your Photography to the Next Level is based on a series of essays originally featured on the popular Luminous Landscape website. These essays were expanded upon and updated, and new essays have been added.

George Barr isn't afrait to tackle some of the rarely discussed, yet essential, aspects of successful photography. Photographers will learn what is required in order to grow in their creativity and to gain a deeper understanding of their craft.

This is not a technical book: no f-stops or shutter speeds are spoken here. Instead, Barr explores the more difficult subjects; the ones that will help you to grow as a photographer. This book takes a practical approach with specific suggestions and enough ideas and exercises to keep you busy and creative for years to come.

* Creativity and developing an eye
* Dealing with disappointment
* Making stronger images
* What photographs well and where to go looking for the best photographic subjects
* How to approach subject material
* Dealing with failure, mind games, and being stuck in a rut
* Framing, cropping, and manipulating prints to create mood and transmit your message
* Knowing your level in order to improve
* How to work the scene
* Sketching to create strong compositions
* Learn by looking at great images
* Assessing image quality
* Identifying your areas that need improvement and becoming a self-aware photographer

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

George Barr is a photographer living in Calgary, Canada. Serious about photography since age 12, working initially with a WWII Zeiss Ikonta and a basement bathroom, he has progressed through medium format, 4X5 and now digital SLR's. He earns his living as a family doctor with a special interest in psychiatry but his primary passion has always been the fine art print.Major milestones include learning to make quality prints from Fred Picker, learning to really 'see' photographs from Hubert Hohn of the Edmonton Art Gallery, looking at Edward Weston prints bare, attending workshops, working with galleries and being published.George has had his images in 'Black and White Photography', 'Black and White', 'Focus', 'Lenswork', and 'Outdoor Photography' (Br.).By the time George closed his darkroom, he was making very high quality prints and carried on this quality with digital cameras and inkjet printing, producing some of the finest inkjet prints made, surprising many traditional 4X5 photographers with the quality.Throughout life George has been a teacher - of medical students and residents, of patients, and fellow photographers. A writer of underestandable patient newsletters and handouts, it was a short step to writing essays on photography. George has bravely tackled the challenging subjects of aesthetics, seeing, and composing, in a style that is clear, practical and applicable to many.
