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 reader’s 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.

Get inspired to be a better photographer
This is the intro chapter to master photographer Kenneth Jarecke’s ongoing photography book. It’s an inspiring chapter that will introduce you to Ken’s unique storytelling both in words and pictures. This is a very unorthodox “how to” book because Ken is not going to give you a recipe of f-stops and shutter speeds, or tell you how to turn on your flash. Instead, he teaches you how to think about photography, not just how to do it, but also how to appreciate it. Reading this book will get you off Youtube and into the library. It will teach you to see like a photographer all the time. It will inspire you to take the craft seriously, work harder, and develop your own vision. It will put you on a the right path, with the brain and muscles to navigate, but it will not tell you how to tie your shoes. Actually there is some good shoe advice in there too, so I guess this book has everything.
