A beautifully designed and lavishly illustrated with photographs that demonstrate the creative potential of filters around the themes of Buildings, Coast, Handheld and Travel, Mountains, Sky, Snow and Ice, and Water. In each chapter, the contributing photographers demonstrate in a clear, accessible manner how the use of one or more filters can help replicate what they see in front of them at the moment of capture – saving valuable time and, importantly, keeping post-production to a minimum. The result? More time to spend in the field making images. Each photograph is illustrated with a diagram showing the placement of the selected filters, while the captions explain clearly what the photographer intended to capture – and how the filter helped them achieve their vision. The book also features a number of Technical Articles on topics as diverse as understanding colour, composition, stitched panoramas and unconventional uses of an ND grad, making it a must-read for any photographer who is interested in balancing their creativity with technical know-how.
