In Make Great Photos: A Friendly Guide for Improving Your
Photographs, photographer and author Alan Hess teaches you the
basics of photography by breaking down the topic into
easy-to-understand sections. Learn a whole range of photography
basics, from photo setup to image editing. Learning the basics of
photography can seem like a daunting task. At first glance, there
is a whole new world of terminology to digest and tons of numbers
to master. It can be confusing, frustrating, and overwhelming. It's
no wonder many people set their cameras to Auto and hope for the
best in whatever situation they're shooting, whether that's a
child's soccer game, a birthday party, or a vacation. Unless luck
strikes, the resulting images are usually not very good. But it
doesn't have to be this way. Enter Make Great Photos: A Friendly
Guide for Improving Your Photographs. In this book, photographer
and author Alan Hess teaches you the basics of photography by
breaking down the topic into its fundamental parts. In the first
section of the book, Alan explains what makes a great photo in the
first place, examining a selection of images and working through
why each one is successful. He then dives into chapters that cover
the photographic choices every photographer needs to make. These
choices boil down to just three main topics: light, focus, and
composition. In the second part of Make Great Photos, Alan
addresses specific shooting situations--categorized into travel,
sports and action, events, and people--discussing the challenges
that each scenario poses and how to conquer them. Finally, you'll
learn the top five basic edits you need to know to make your images
pop when you share them online. At the end of chapters, there are
thoughtful exercises and assignments that push you to learn and
grow in your photography. These fun activities help you fully
absorb the lessons throughout the book so you can head out with
your camera and capture great images.
