25 years of nature photography instruction in one gorgeous,
full-color, hands-on course
Anyone can photograph nature—just step outside and
you’re on location. But becoming a good nature photographer
takes expert training. In Photographing Nature, Ralph
Clevenger, whose images have appeared in such publications as
Nature’s Best and National Geographic, shares
the techniques he’s been personally using and teaching to
aspiring photographers for the last 25 years in his popular nature
photography course at the elite Brooks Institute.
In this stunning, four-color course-in-a-book, each chapter opens
with a spectacular photo spread from the natural world that
Clevenger uses to illustrate themes and techniques essential to
mastering nature photography. Just as he does in his classroom at
Brooks, Clevenger explains how each photo was captured, the tools
and techniques used, and typical problems related to capturing such
a photo, along with solutions. Chapters also include sample Q&A
sessions as well as assignments you can try yourself.
By the time you’ve worked through all of the techniques in
this beautiful, yet informative book, you’ll not only
photograph the world differently, you’ll see it differently
as well. With a foreword by George Lepp, one of North
America’s best-known contemporary outdoor and nature
photographers.
