Detailed image
Into the book
Like all my previous books, this one aims to shatter the myth that the art of creating images is reserved for a select few.
You'll quickly grasp and understand the difference between accurate exposure and "creatively accurate exposure." You'll also learn the myth of ISO.
As you work through the many exercises and problems presented in this book, you'll discover ways to see things in ways you never could have imagined before.
--- p.10 'Preface'
If you take 100 shots, no more than 10 will be worth keeping.
If you can be a cool-headed editor and discard those 90 shots you don't think are worth sharing, you'll free up space to store more of the truly valuable images.
If you really need to shoot in both JPEG and RAW, I recommend starting the editing process in camera and immediately deleting any bad JPEG/RAW files.
--- p.17 'A Few Digital Basics'
If you develop the habit of looking at a scene and deciding what aperture and shutter speed to combine to create the most dynamic and creative exposure for that subject, the rewards will be immeasurable.
The choice of such exposure is always yours.
So, wouldn't it be natural to always choose creative exposures whenever taking a photo? --- p.36 'Exposure'
Try my “formula”, it’s absolutely foolproof.
This formula always guarantees success.
First, turn off autofocus.
Use a focal length that provides at least a 75-degree field of view (17mm or 18mm on a non-full-frame DSLR, 28mm on a film camera or full-frame DSLR).
Now, set the aperture to f/22 and focus on an object about 1.5 meters away from the lens.
If you are in manual exposure mode, set the shutter speed to the speed that the light meter indicates as correct exposure and take the picture.
If it's aperture priority auto mode, just shoot.
The camera will determine the shutter speed for you.
--- p.54 'Aperture'
Whether film or digital, most of those fleeting moments you want to record can be captured at shutter speeds within your reach, even at ISO 100.
The idea that you have to go out and use high-sensitivity film (e.g., ISO 400, 800, or 1000) just to freeze motion is a myth! Of course, camera manufacturers have made great strides in reducing noise even in the ultra-high ISO range, from 800 to 2400.
With the promise of “fine grain” at such high ISOs, it’s easy to be tempted to ditch the tripod for good.
Is that really true? --- p.82 'Shutter Speed and ISO'
What's the connection between what we see and what the lens sees? Here's a hint.
If you cover one eye and look around, the human eye sees the same as a 50mm lens.
That's why a lens with a focal length of 50mm is called a 'standard lens'.
If you look at it with both eyes, it's very similar to looking at an 18-70mm lens set to 18mm.
That focal length is as creative as your eye can ever achieve.
The human eye cannot zoom out to bring distant objects closer, nor can it see extreme close-ups with a single turn of the lens, nor can it create fish-eye vision.
But the camera lens can.
--- p.120 'Learning to See'
The most striking photographs are often simple compositions of common subjects.
A successful photograph is one that deals with only one subject, only one idea.
And in those photos, without exception, there is no clutter scattered around.
However, many amateur photographers, in their desire to record an image hastily, end up producing photos with too many focal points, or in some cases, no focal points at all.
Because there is no direction, it ends up being confusing, and so it fails to capture the viewer's attention, and the eye soon leaves the photo in search of visual satisfaction elsewhere.
--- p.161 'Designing Eye-Catching Images'
Does "a certain light" require a completely different aperture and shutter speed? Of course not.
It is still true that accurate exposure is a combination of aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.
And creatively correct exposure is a combination of the right aperture, the right shutter speed, and the right ISO, whether there is light or not.
Light is the best decoration you can put on a cake, not the cake itself.
Is it the same in the past, present and future?
--- p.253 'The Importance of Light'
Until recently, the “rule” in photography was this:
“Keep the horizon level and, above all, focus firmly.” It was also unthinkable for a photographer to handhold a camera and intentionally shoot at a very slow shutter speed.
Those who broke the norm were often ridiculed.
Of course, the reason is that the result is shaky and out of focus.
Fortunately, times have changed, and the idea of what I call “painting with slow shutter speeds” has been embraced by many photographers.
Unlike panning, which requires a lot of practice, this is literally a trial and error exercise.
But when everything falls into place, the results can be truly amazing.
--- p.360 'Non-traditional techniques'
Among the many filters on the market today, if there's one filter every photographer should have, it's a polarizing filter.
The basic purpose of using a polarizing filter is to reduce the glare that reflects off the surface of a subject, such as glass, metal, or water.
On clear days, polarizing filters work best when used at a 90-degree angle to the sun.
This is precisely why side lighting is the best situation to use a polarizing filter.
In other words, the polarizing effect of a polarizing filter is maximized when you are at a 90-degree angle to the sun.
Polarization is not very effective when the sun is behind you or directly in front of you.
You'll quickly grasp and understand the difference between accurate exposure and "creatively accurate exposure." You'll also learn the myth of ISO.
As you work through the many exercises and problems presented in this book, you'll discover ways to see things in ways you never could have imagined before.

Cheongoram Media's new book, "Everything About Photography by Brian Peterson," is a compilation of six bestselling books by author Brian Peterson ("How to See Images Creatively," "Everything About Exposure for Great Photos," "Everything About DSLRs for Great Photos," "Everything About Portraits," "Everything About Shutter Speed for Great Photos," and "Everything About Macro Photography by Brian Peterson"), and provides a comprehensive overview of photography techniques suited to the new digital environment.
The concept of this book is “How to Shoot Great Photographs with Any Camera.”
Whether you're using a film camera, a DSLR camera, or a standard point-and-shoot camera, we've systematically organized the most basic principles of taking photos.
Therefore, it contains essential information for beginner photographers as well as amateur photographers in general.
Brian Peterson's signature "photography lessons" will help you take amazing, creative photos anytime, anywhere, with any camera, including a solid understanding of exposure, how to "see" an image, how to compose it more creatively, and how to master the magic of light.
Currently ranked 11th in the Amazon Arts category (as of May 11, 2010), this book is worth owning as a 'comprehensive/complete edition' of Brian Peterson's previous bestsellers for readers who have already purchased other books.
Even for readers who are new to Brian Peterson's books, this book alone will provide a great opportunity to master the 'secrets of taking great photographs.'
A comprehensive edition of the best-selling book by world-renowned photography educator Brian Peterson.
Author Brian Peterson is a world-renowned photography educator who has been taking photographs for the past 38 years.
He also founded an online photography school (www.ppsop.com) to provide various photography content and help those who want to learn photography.
This book contains almost everything about photography that the author has learned through firsthand experience, reflection, and reflection since he first started taking pictures.
The author says that no matter how much the photography world changes to digital and technology advances, it cannot affect creativity, which is the element that differentiates images.
It emphasizes that it is solely up to the photographer to capture the 'decisive' moment and 'creatively' compose the image, and presents what, where, and why successful image creation takes place.
Additionally, I advise you not to be caught up in the preconceived notion that you 'have to take it properly.'
Rather, I encourage you to have fun taking photos, as there is no set formula for creating images.
That's why the various exercises and example photos in this book are easy for beginners to understand, friendly, and contain over 38 years of secrets, making them useful for practical use.
