PHOTOGRAPHING THE ELEMENTS: Capturing Nature`s M

All landscape photographers have at some point endeavoured to capture the truly awe-inspiring power of nature, whether it's the effects of the earth's volcanic nature, or the power of a terrifying storm whipping through the mid-west, or the majesty of the Severn bore. The book describes how you can find and capture all of nature's most dramatic conditions, including flowing volcanic lava, tornados, cloud formations and crashing waves. The book is divided into chapters tackling each of the ancient elements, and further divided into specific events. For all of these extreme conditions, there is a complete photographic guide, with practical advice on camera care (and safety), photographic advice on exposure and composition, and processing advice that will make your picture stand head-and-shoulders above the competition. There is also a chapter on creating the best quality prints, showing and sharing them, finding a buyer for them, and a gazetteer of locations so you can follow in the photographer's footsteps. Wherever you tread, this book will help you make your photos more exciting, from the weather in your back yard to your pictures of that trip-of-a-lifetime you've been planning.
