Named One of Shutterbug Magazines Top Digital Imaging Books of 2008! Capturing an image and getting the right exposure is critical and Jeff Wignall recognizes exposure as the secret for creating an image that captures a vision and shares it with the world. When you apply his techniques with patience, experimentation, and a focus on the outcome, you will begin creating images that reveal not only what you saw, but how you felt when you saw it. In fact according to Shutterbug magazine Exposure Photo Workshop " may be the best book yet written about exposure ." By learning to work with natural light as well as when to use flash you will confidently capture action, night scenes, rainbows, sunsets, and reflections like never before. With stunning images, Jeff Wignall shows you how to perfectly expose pictures in even the most challenging existing light conditions, including poor weather, using a flash, and even a section guiding you through using multiple wireless flash units. You can upload your own images to Photoworkshop.com and get feedback from other photographers. Wignall starts by explaining the fundamentals of exposure and why it's important. This leads into learning the basics of exposure controls. By the end of chapter 2, you will know how to control the exposure on your point-and-shoot or digital SLR camera. Chapter 3 walks readers through measuring light using just about any light meter and Chapter 4 delves into lens apertures and depth of field. The focus moves to shutter speed and subject motion. After Chapter 6, you'll have the knowledge and confidence to turn off your camera's automatic settings and take manual control. Wignall then examines natural light exposures, discussing the intricacies of light quality, light direction, and time of day. As you approach more advanced exposure options, you'll need the troubleshooting advice provided in Chapter 8, covering difficult situations such as metering challenges, handling contrast, and creating dramatic silhouettes. With more advanced techniques mastered, you can then approach night and low-light conditions and then examine special considerations such as the weather and natural phenomena. The book finishes strong with a comprehensive look at all things flash photography.

A MUST READ!
As a student of photography, this book has been an invaluable tool in enabling me to better understand the steps to getting better photographs. Exposure is such a key to good photographs, and other sources weren't making it all clear to me. Sometimes wrapping one's mind around f-stops, shutter speed and ISO settings and their relation to each other in making better photos can be overwhelming. The author breaks each step down into manageable sections and in a logical sequence that was a great help in improving (my) your ability to produce a photo worth sharing. He's quite the instructor. I'd recommend this book to anyone having difficulty understanding why your photographs don't have the impact you were looking for when you took the shot, or who is interested in wanting to improve their photography skills. I know it brought home the "how to" and "why" for me.
