Scott Kelby, author of the groundbreaking bestseller "The Digital
Photography Book, Vol. 1" is back with an entirely new book that
picks up right where Vol. 1 left off. It's more of that "Ah ha-so
that's how they do it," straight-to-the-point, skip the techno
jargon; packed with stuff you can really use today, that made Vol.
1 the world's bestselling book on digital photography. In Volume 2,
Scott adds entirely new chapters packed with Plain English tips on
using flash, shooting close up photography, travel photography,
shooting people, and even how to build a studio from scratch, where
he demystifies the process so anyone can start taking pro-quality
portraits today! Plus, he's got full chapters on his most requested
topics, including loads of tips for landscape photographers,
wedding photographers, and there's an entire chapter devoted to
sharing some of the pro's secrets for making your photos look more
professional, no matter what you're shooting. This book truly has a
brilliant premise, and here's how Scott describes it: "If you and I
were out on a shoot, and you asked me, 'When I use my flash, the
background behind the person I'm shooting turns black. How do I fix
that?' I wouldn't give you a lecture on flash ratios, or start a
discussion on flash synchronization and rear curtain sync. I'd just
say "Lower your shutter speed to 1/60 of a second. That should do
it" Well, that's what this book is all about: you and I out
shooting where I answer questions, give you advice, and share the
secrets I've learned just like I would with a friend-without all
the technical explanations and techie photo speak." Each page
covers a single concept on how to make your photography better.
Every time you turn the page, you'll learn another pro setting,
tool, or trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery
prints. If you're tired of taking shots that look "okay," and if
you're tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, "Why
don't my shots look like that?" then this is the book for you. This
isn't a book of theory-full of confusing jargon and detailed
concepts. This is a book on which button to push, which setting to
use, and when to use it. With nearly another 200 of the most
closely guarded photographic "tricks of the trade," this book gets
you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful,
more professional-looking photos every time.
