  • Learning to observe: rethinking the familiar
  • Learning to imagine: abstracting and selecting
  • Learning to express: Subject matter and the photographer
  • Elements and principles of visual design and more.

This edition of Photography and the Art of Seeing is updated to include technical guidelines adapted for both digital and film photographers and includes photographs from Freeman Patterson's personal collection.

About the Author:

Freeman Patterson began to work in photography in 1965. He co-founded the Namaqualand Photographic Workshops in southern Africa and has given numerous workshops in the United States, Israel, England, New Zealand, and Australia. He has published eleven books and has written for many national magazines. In 2001, Patterson received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the North American Nature Photography Association.

Review:
I don't think you can go wrong with any of Freeman's books.... This book covers visual design, it will help you to "see" and photograph the world around you. (Garry Black Garry Black Photography (GarryBlack.com))
