Creative Landscape Photography using the Pyramid Method

"...a cracking instructional text… If you don't grow as a photographer after studying this, you might as well sell your camera gear and call it a day. The book is something special." —Mike Mackay

Using a brand new teaching approach, Andrew takes the reader on a step-by-step walkthrough of every task needed to take outstanding landscape photographs, using a pyramid of workflow steps. 

This book takes a different approach to other photography ‘how to’ guides. It's a practical guide that firstly gives you the knowledge that helps you be more perceptive, resourceful, and creative. Secondly, it provides a systematic methodology in which to apply that knowledge. 

Clearly mapped out are the steps performed by professional landscape photographers, from the very start of a project through to the finishing touches to the chosen image on the computer, and captured them in a step-by-step framework called the Pyramid Method.

The Pyramid breaks down these essential tasks into easy to follow, foolproof steps that anyone can apply—even beginners. All that the Pyramid Method assumes is that the reader has a camera system that uses interchangeable lenses (either a digital SLR, or a mirrorless camera system) and some camera accessories.

Through Creative Landscape Photography Using the Pyramid Method's text, example photographs and illustrations, you will:

• Discover the benefits of planning and preparation

• Understand the reasons behind the practical techniques at each step

• Find foolproof methods and settings to use to virtually guarantee success

• Get checklists that quickly help you understand what’s required

• View diagrams and examples illustrating the different steps

• Follow detailed case studies for each level

• Get links to useful resources

See how quickly you'll improve your photography.
