Produktbeschreibung

Embrace the dark and conquer landscape photography at night!

In the past, landscape photography largely ended when the last light of dusk faded from the sky. Today it's only beginning. The latest digital cameras have made it much easier to create images of the landscape at night that film and early digital photographers could only dream of. Equipped with off-the-shelf cameras, more and more photographers are venturing into the night, far beyond the comforting glow of city lights, and returning with spectacular images of places both familiar and unknown that are unlike anything seen before.

Dusk to Dawn: A Guide to Landscape Photography at Night, 2nd Edition, is your guide to this new photographic world. In it, photographer Glenn Randallauthor of the bestselling The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photographyteaches you how to plan, shoot, and process professional-quality images of the Milky Way, the aurora, lunar eclipses, meteor showers, comets, star trails, and landscapes lit solely by moonlight.

In this fully revised and updated second edition, Randall goes deeper into today's technology that allows for great landscape photography at night: from mirrorless cameras that now truly dominate the market (and require a different approach to focusing) to the apps photographers need to know to best prepare for a successful shoot (Photo Pills, Photo Ephemeris Web). This edition has been also updated with dozens of new photographs from the author, as well as a new section on photographing comets.

Throughout the book, Randall emphasizes ways to integrate beautiful depictions of the night sky with equally compelling renditions of the land below it to create complete landscape images that evoke a sense of placeand a sense of wonder. Equipped with the knowledge in this book, readers will be able to create their own nocturnal masterpieces.

Autorenporträt

Since 1979, Glenn Randall has combined his love of the wilderness with his passion for photography to create stunning landscape images. His intimate knowledge of atmospheric optics, weather conditions, and the landscapes he photographs allows him to find an intersection between magical light and stunning subject matter, which results in exceptional images. He is the author of several books, including the best-selling The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography and Dusk to Dawn: A Guide to Landscape Photography at Night.

Glenn's work has been included in calendars for Audubon, Avalanche, Barnes & Noble, Brown Trout, Sierra Club, Nature Conservancy, and Runner's World. His images have been published in Audubon, GEO, Outdoor Photographer, Outside, SKI, Los Angeles Times Magazine, National Geographic Adventure, New York Times Magazine, and many others. His photographs have also been used by book publishers and corporate clients. At age 56, he has accumulated nearly 1,200 photo credits, including 73 covers, and sold over 10,000 prints.

Glenn has authored 200 magazine articles and nine books, including two books of landscape photographs: Rocky Mountain National Park Impressions and Colorado Wild & Beautiful, both published by Farcountry Press. He recently completed a seven-year project called Sunrise from the Summit, in which he shot the sunrise (and occasionally the sunset) from the summit of all fifty-four Colorado Fourteeners (peaks over 14,000 feet). He lives in Boulder, Colorado.
