In an age over-saturated with photographic imagery, an awareness of basic design principles will add new depth to your photography. By adapting and experimenting with the tried and tested techniques used by graphic designers every day, you can add dynamism and impact to your imagery, whatever the style or genre. In this theoretical and practical exploration of photography, Jeremy Webb shows you how to incorporate line, shape, colour, space, texture and light into your creative work. With over 200 colour images, this new edition is packed with helpful tips and tricks: examples of unsuccessful compositions, annotated images highlighting key techniques, and an expanded glossary. It also includes new sections on photographic movements and genres, and offers ideas on how key concepts from these disciplines might impact your photography.
