The first book I have chosen to look at is a digital
guide to photography. It tells you what lenses are suitable for certain subject
arias, what lighting you will need and helps with ideas for a range of
different projects. The book also has something about editing pictures on Photoshop
on pretty much every page. This is quite an important area of photography for
me to look at, as I prefer to add effects to pictures when I physically am taking
them; it may be good for me to attempt some other methods on Photoshop. Overall
it’s a great thing for me to have a look at as it will help me develop my
skills in the subject.
The second book I have chosen to look at is ‘The
Electric Image – Chris Kitze’. I picked it up purely because of its name. I’m
usually a fan of film and black and white photography so I decided to look at something
that was its opposite. The book itself is really well made; its bound with
white thread and the outer cover is hard shiny card. When you look inside it
greats you with pages of transparent paper covered in computer code, which I really
like because it’s stylized. The images themselves remind me of light trail photography.
They have the same colors and flow, it’s as if the trails came to life and
created a city together.
