DOC quot;Our Kind of Moviequot;: The Films of Andy Warhol (MIT Press) by Douglas Crimp in Arts-Photography

Description

As digital cameras and software packages become more advanced; seemingly by the minute; it has become easier than ever to overlook the basic elements which have always resulted in the best photographs; no matter how fancy (or primitive) the camera itself. Composition is the single most important aspect of creating great images; no matter what level of photographer you happen to be. No amount of digital wizardry can turn a badly composed image into a picture you would want to display. While many books on composition tend to overcomplicate the subject; this book breaks down everything you need to know into small; digestible chunks of information that you will actually remember once youre out and about taking pictures. Instead of plodding through long and complex pages of text; this book supplements the necessary information; such as the basics of the rule of thirds and how to get good highlights and shadows; with tons of gorgeous; full color images that actually show you what to do and how to do it; rather than just telling you what to try. Youll be amazed at the gorgeous images youll create; whether your passion is for photographing your family; pets; travel adventures; nature; or anything else.
