Drawing on over 40 years of practical experience, best-selling
author and photographer Michael Freeman examines the most
fundamental building-blocks of photography - light and shadow -
bringing this key element of the picture-making process into the
21st century. In this book, Freeman takes a new and different view
of photography's prime commodity, arguing that for the
photographer, the rich and evocative world of shadows is the full
equal of the actual light that casts them and bathes scenes. He
defines the varied qualities of both light and shadows (of which
there are at least ten distinct types), and shows how they have
particular meaning and purpose. He also argues for integrating
exposure and processing with an appreciation of light and shadow
quality so as to have full and subtle control. Armed with this
understanding and these techniques, the creative photographer can
work with light and shadow to add depth and quality to imagery. -
All new content from the master of photography guides - Concise and
easy-to-follow format clearly explains the fundamentals of light
and shadow - For the first time ever, both light and shadow are
given equal weight in the discussion of photographic image-making -
Real-life examples, clearly illustrated, cut through the jargon and
show the theory of light and shadow in practice
