Special Effect and Photo-Art

Books on Digital Photography
The Better Digital Photography series is aimed at amateur photographers who want to explore the potential of digital technology in order to improve the quality and range of work they do in their chosen field, be it snapshots of family activities, records of their travels, landscapes, portraits of still life pictures.Nowhere is this potential greater than in the field of special effects and photo art. Sitting in front of their PC or Mac, photographers can now manipulate their digital images with ease to achieve effects that, using traditional film-based photography, could only be attempted by experienced printmakers with years of darkroom experience - and if one experiment doesn't work, they can go back and try a different tack with a few clicks of the mouse.Michael Busselle distils the process of creating digital images into two distinct stages - Capture and Enhance - and in easy to follow steps shows how a whole range of techniques can be used to create dramatic and unusual effects. Inspired by many examples in the Gallery section, amateurs will quickly discover the immense creative possibilities opened up by the new technology.Discover How to: * Find artistic compositions * Use the light * Crop in camera * Use special effects creatively * Transform dull images into photo art * Create photographs to frame * File and manage your images * Improve the quality of your prints
