Book Reviews of Galen Rowell's Inner Game of Outdoor Photography
Book Review: Not an instruction manual.
Summary: 4 Stars
I loved this book. Great photographs and very inspiring. There are a few pointers on the technical aspect of photography, but the book stays true to its title by focusing on the emotional part (the important part) of creating an image. I gave it only four stars because the last chapter had little meaning to me as a photographer. It basically talks about photography as a large scale way to influence politics to save the environment. Noble, but doesn't really apply to my situation.
Summary of Galen Rowell's Inner Game of Outdoor Photography
In 66 essays based on his popular column in Outdoor Photographer, and in more than 160 color photographs, Galen Rowell shows how he transforms what he sees into vivid, memorable works of art. He clearly explains why pre-visualizing a photograph before exposing any film is one key to making an arresting image rather than a mere replica of what we see through the viewfinder. He also offers technical and practical information on topics ranging from how to pack camera gear what to leave behind when you need to travel light pushing film to extremes and when and how to use fill flash, smart flash and remote smart flash.General Books
