Publisher Description
A person’s “eye”, how they see the world, is unique to them. Making images that reflect that vision is the serious photographer’s goal. Capturing that vision, to go from seeing an image to making it, are two very different things. Teaching this skill, while protecting the artist’s eye, is the goal of this book.
This book is designed for photographers who realize their brain is the most important picture making tool they own.

Sharing the gospel truth- you need to hear it
What a breath of fresh air to read a testament to the roots of true photojournalism and finding the frame in the ordinary. Jarecke is old school, and I’m diggin’ it.
The best chapter yet, must read for photographers.
Street photography is important for any serious photographer to practice and appreciate. Here the master, Kenneth Jarecke shares his motivations and techniques developed over a long and distinguished career as a photojournalist, for making street pictures, along with an amazing set of images to demonstrate what he is talking about (some never published before now). He explains why street photography is the cornerstone of all photography and how shooting on the street can help photographers working in any subfield of photography. I highly recommend each chapter of this book, but this is my favorite so far. It will motivate you and give you practical insights that will make you a better photographer.
