Photographing Water In The Landscape

by David Tarn

From the essential equipment to the best techniques, from finding inspiration to using light skillfully, this highly practical and extremely breathtaking volume shows how to capture the beauty of water in a photograph. Every instructive and eye-opening chapter comes complete with valuable workshops aimed at challenging and extending photographic skills, and case studies focus on particular images and the techniques that went into creating them. And the lavish images throughout provide an education in themselves. Water appears in all its magnificent diversity, including rivers, streams, lakes, and falls; at the coastline; and as snow, ice, and mist. By example, these photos show how to attain a good composition, emphasize texture, capture the mood of a location, and achieve romantic reflections.
