Stephen Johnson on Digital Photography


Stephen Johnson on Digital Photography


$26.08


Widely recognized among his peers as a pioneer of digital photography, a master photographer provides a practical, in-depth introduction to digital photography that offers the latest techniques for beginning and experienced photographers alike.From the Publisher: We are in the Stone Age of digital photography. We’ve figured out how to make some tools, but it is just now beginning to dawn on us what we might do with them. I’ve often been frustrated at the concentration on the technical aspect of digital photography with so little discussion of the aesthetics and heart behind the image making. This book is essentially a distillation of what I’ve been teaching over the last 25 years. Master photographer Stephen Johnson has been taking beautiful landscape photography for decades, and teaching others the practical art of image making since 1977. While he started out with traditional film camera techniques, Johnson is widely recognized among his peers as a pioneer of digital photography. Stephen Johnson on Digital Photography chronicles his ride on the bleeding edge of this medium’s evolution, and provides a practical in-depth introduction to digital photography that offers the latest techniques for beginning and experienced photographers alike.What sets this guide apart from other books on the topic is its approach and execution: This isn’t a Photoshop book, although Photoshop has its place within the book; it’s a book that a master teacher and photographer creates after a lifetime of showing others how to understand and make great photography. Complete with beautiful color photographic examples and illustrations, Johnson’s book covers everything from:The basics of digital photographyFilm camera techniques vs. digitalPractical approaches of the filmless photographerTechniques of the digital darkroomA photographer’s digital journeyPhotography, art and the futureThis is a holistic work (and method for teaching) that embraces the state of photographic tools and techniques, blended with suggestions and experiences on why I make photographs, Johnson says. At its best, photography rides that crest where technology and art intersect. But the deepest engagement that photography can bring remains its ability to capture and hold a moment before the lens. In this age of digital manipulation, that fundamental fact must be remembered.About the Author:Stephen Johnson is a photographer, designer and teacher. His photographs have appeared in numerous publications including American Photo, Audubon, Life Magazine, Landscape Magazine, Pacific Discovery, Sierra Magazine, U.S. News and World Report and The New York Times, to name a few. Internationally recognized as a digital photography pioneer, Johnson’s photographs are part of the permanent collections of many institutions including the Oakland Museum, the Getty, the City of New York, Apple Computer, and the National Park Service.

Proust in the Power of Photography


Proust in the Power of Photography


$45.38


Translated by Richard Howard from Marcel Proust sous l’emprise de la photographie. One of the most original and memorable photographers of the twentieth century, Brassai was also a journalist, sculptor, and writer. He took great pride in his writing, and he loved literature and language-French most of all. When he arrived in Paris in 1924, Brassai began teaching himself French by reading Proust. Captured by the sensuality and visual strategies of Proust’s writing, Brassai soon became convinced that he had discovered a kindred spirit. Brassai wrote: In his battle against Time, that enemy of our precarious existence, ever on the offensive though never openly so, it was in photography, also born of an age-old longing to halt the moment, to wrest it from the flux of ‘duree’ in order to ‘fix’ it forever in a semblance of eternity, that Proust found his best ally. He quoted Proust in his own writing, and from the annotated books in his library, we know that he spent a lifetime studying and dissecting Proust’s prose, often line by line. Drawing on his own experience as a photographer and author, Brassai discovers a neglected aspect of Proust’s interests, offering us a fascinating study of the role of photography both in Proust’s oeuvre and in early-twentieth-century culture. Brassai shows us how Proust was excessively interested in possessing portraits of his acquaintances and how the process by which he remembered and wrote was quite similar to the ways in which photographs register and reveal life’s images. This book-beautifully translated by Richard Howard-features previously obscure photographs from Brassai’s High Society series and offers a rare glimpse into two of France’s mostfascinating artistic minds.
