PHOTOGRAPHY: TENTH EDITION By Barbara London, Jim Stone, John Upton - Custom Victor Valley College Edition 2011

by Barbara London

More than a million copies of Photography are now in print. Many people who have used this book have become professional photographers or photography instructors or are continuing to pursue their personal interests in photography. Whatever your interest in photography, this book is designed to teach the skill that you will need to use the medium confidently and effectively. This edition continues that tradition; it lays out what you need to know to make photographs with digital tools, but also explains the darkroom step-by-step if you are using film. This book presents all facets of photography. The emphasis, however, continues to be in two major areas_technique and visual awareness. The technical material helps you learn how to control the photographic process, or as Ansel Adams put it, to understand the way that the lens "sees" and the light-sensitive material "sees." Equally important, this book can help you see by showing you the choices that other photographers have made and that you can make when you raise a camera to your eye.
