Customer Reviews
I do some teaching of basic digital photography where my emphasis is on analyzing the scene before the picture is taken. Nothing is more fundamental to this than analyzing the condition of light--its availability and quality.
This Wiley book Lighting is one of their `Photo Workshop' series that has a proven formula. The author, Chris Bucher starts with a discussion of how cameras see and measure light, and how that affects photos. The remainder of the book considers real-world lighting situations such as indoor/outdoor lighting, night and low light photography and creating dramatic photos with light. In my experience, the only way to become proficient in this kind of subject is through practice and training one's eye, so the workshop nature of the book is appreciated.
I have found a number of teaching points in Lighting which I'm including in my own course, so I'm happy to recommend this book to others.
