Tom Gallovich

Power Composition for Photography (eBook, ePUB)

Develop Your Artistic Eye

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, Tom Gallovich shows readers how to use their camera's exposure controls (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) to establish the focal point of the image and create the overall mood of the shot and choose a particular lens or focal-length setting to massage the way elements in the original scene will appear within the frame. Next, he presents chapters on using shape, color, lines, and arrangement to strengthen the intended visual message. Readers will learn how to best place their primary subject (and in some cases secondary subject) for maximum impact and will discover artistic strategies that reinforce that decision through careful use of color, tone, highlight and shadow, leading lines, curved shapes, and relative size-qualities that will contribute to the overall mood in the image. Copious illustrations emphasize the impact that putting these concepts into play will have on your images-and these are often coupled with images that show how ineffective images are when those important compositional needs are not attended to.

Autorenporträt

Long ago Tom purchased a Minolta X - 570 to obtain reference for his nature paintings. Always up before sunrise, he began to record some of nature's most powerful moments. It was then, he decided that some of his photographs could not be improved by a painting. Photography was now demanding most of his time. Using his artistic background as the foundation to compose his photos, Tom's work slowly gained attention. After winning hundreds of state-wide awards, he began to enter national and international competitions. Placing in such events as the Natural World Photographic Exhibition, Carnegie Museum, and Triennial/Biennial at the Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art. With many workshops, a long commercial career, and teaching at the associate degree level behind him, Tom now enjoys photographing at a more relaxed pace. He currently resides in his self-built home/studio in Western Pennsylvania.
