What makes some photographs stay in the memory forever? Sometimes
it's the subject matter alone, but more often it's the skill of the
artists who took them. The premise of this magnificent book is
quite simple: take 100 leading examples of the work of the world's
greatest photographers, and a distinguished academic will describe
how they achieved their effects to allow you to recreate them
yourself. Discover how to compose 'decisive moments' like
Cartier-Bresson, use long exposures for landscapes like Simon
Norfolk, and experiment with flash in daylight like Rineke
Dijkstra.The images are arranged thematically, with engaging
analysis of each image and a description of its technical make-up,
along with a biography of each artist. The book showcases 100 of
the greatest images in the history of the art and will provide an
indispensable guide to the technicalities behind the well-known
masterpieces and hidden gems in the world of photography. The
photographers and their images were carefully selected by award
winning photographer, educator and academic Paul Lowe, whose years
of experience as a photojournalist and as a teacher gives unique
and detailed insight into the working methods of these great image
makers.
