The Modern Photographer's Guide to Shooting Waterfalls (Volume 1) Michael J. Henderson 1st edition

The Modern Photographer's Guide to Shooting Waterfalls is a basic how-to book for those who are interested in capturing the raw and natural beauty of waterfalls and their surroundings using today's digital technology. It is not a book about the waterfalls themselves, or where to find them, but rather a book full of valuable information for the active photographer. While the approach is fairly basic, this is a guide that even a seasoned shooter can benefit from, and the compact 6"x9" size makes it an ideal companion booklet to carry in your camera bag. The author shares tips & tricks gleaned from over 20 years of shooting 35mm film cameras, and now digital SLR cameras. Among the techniques covered is a basic introduction to the technique of high dynamic range, or HDR shooting and processing, with an emphasis on the proper way to capture your images on-location for effective post-processing later. Lush, full-color examples of various waterfalls and the author's reasoned approach to shooting them are featured throughout the book.
