Вашему вниманию предлагается книга, которую издательство «Диалектика» выпустило в 2006 году, и которая посвящена очень интересной теме – съемке обнаженной натуры. Книга не перегружена техническими подробностями, в ней приведены только основные сведения, которые позволят осознанно выбрать цифровой фотоаппарат и другие аксессуары. Ее преимущество в другом – подробно рассмотрены вопросы, касающиеся собственно процесса съемки. В частности, рассмотрены такие вопросы, как выбор сюжета и подбор модели, применение источников света, а также особенности съемки в студии и на природе. Поскольку книга посвящена съемке цифровым фотоаппаратом, то в ней рассмотрена и такая тема, как обработка и редактирование полученных изображений в программе Photoshop, что позволяет реализовать самые смелые творческие замыслы.

Однажды на семинаре по фотографии, на котором присутствовали 360 человек, Скотт Келби спросил аудиторию: «У кого из вас есть внешняя вспышка типа Nikon, Canon или Yongnuo?» Подняли руку 340 человек. «Отлично, а теперь еще один вопрос, только хорошенько подумайте, прежде чем ответить. Кто из вас любит свою вспышку?» Результат ошеломил: 4 человека! К сожалению, аналогичные результаты повторялись в разных городах и даже странах. Похоже, все покупали внешние вспышки только потому, что это было модно, не получая тех снимков, о которых мечтали изначально. Многие не только не любят свою вспышку, но даже перестали ею пользоваться. Пора положить этому конец. Кто-то же должен объяснить, как делать красивые фотографии со вспышкой на каждой съемке! Вот для чего была написана эта книга – чтобы помочь вам полюбить свою вспышку. И главное – это проще, чем вы думаете. Вы удивитесь тому, насколько все просто, ведь вам не придется копаться в настройках, выполнять сложные расчеты и даже пользоваться экспонометром (не в этой книге). Скотт Келби описывает систему, которую сам применяет уже много лет. Она наверняка отличается от того, что можно прочитать в Интернете, но дает результат, и когда вы ее освоите, вы в этом убедитесь. Это не книга по теории фотографии, переполненная терминами и заумными рассуждениями. Здесь доступным языком рассказывается, какие кнопки нажимать, какие настройки использовать и как правильно фотографировать. Если вам надоело делать посредственные снимки и вы разглядываете иллюстрации в глянцевых журналах, спрашивая себя: «Почему у меня так не получается?», то вы нашли нужную книгу!

A unique collection of stunning photographs and detailed portraits of over fifty of the most striking owl species around the world.The less we know about something, the more we create a mythology around it. This is especially true for owls. Mainly nocturnal, generally silent, and reliant on the element of surprise in their attacks, they seldom encounter humans, but we have still created a vast body of legend around these mysterious avians – for some, they symbolise wisdom, for others they are the agents of evil or harbingers of death.Understanding these birds is a great challenge outstandingly met by award-winning natural history author Mike Unwin and David Tipling, one of Britain’s foremost photographers. Unwin, who has watched and admired owls all over the world, captures the essence of each species, while explaining the unique natural history that has made these silent assassins the most effective feathered predators of darkness. He describes a fascinating range of breeding and hunting behaviour, the unusual calls that have given rise to so much superstition, and the cultural impact of owls around the world. The stunning range of photographs, taken and compiled by David Tipling, captures the beauty of each species and the drama of the landscapes they inhabit.At once an investigation and a celebration, A Parliament of Owls looks at over fifty species of these infinitely fascinating birds, from the Snowy Owl hunting lemmings in the Arctic tundra to the rodent-eating Burrowing Owl of the dusty hollows beneath the South American pampas.

Особняком стоят главы «Перекрестки России» и «Петрово», проиллюстрированные самим автором. Эти главы суть жизни самого автора. Всего в книге больше двадцати статей, касающихся разных сторон и проблем фотографии.
