Book Description
Proceeding systematically and registering data is the starting point to develop techniques and procedures. This book will help you to visualize, calculate exposure in relation to bellows extensions, filter factor and reciprocity and estimate depth of field. It wants to be a compact companion, everywhere, in every occasion. Charts in chronological order provide systematical guidelines. 140 printed forms are waiting for your collected data to be filled in ( e.g. 140 single sheet film negatives or 140 medium format films with 12 exposures on each film). Mastery is not achieved with buying expensive devices or comparing MTF charts. To have routines, training and revision in everyday practise is far more important. Photography is not rocket science. You control perspective, image placement and depth of field on your ground glass. - You define textured shadows and highlights in III and VII and adjust exposure and development to get some contrast. - You know about bellows extension factors and filter factors because making a portrait in 4x5 inch is macro photography and you use an external light meter. Simply add the exposure values in the charts, successively. Did you ever mention to do macro photography with a DX / FX SLR and an incident light meter, e.g. a Sekonic L28c2 or a Gossen Luna-Pro? Why not? It is possible and far more satisfying than 3D matrix metering through the lens. - Large format cameras do not have a depth of field scale. Just read the tables below to make an estimated guess. - But be aware: these charts result from personal experiences: of course there will be no warranty in case of failure. If you want to learn more about theory and techniques of photography there is an interesting bibliography. You will find some of these items in your local library.

Zhang Huan Ash
Author: Huan Zhang
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Buddhism in art
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
In October 2007, Haunch of Venison will present Zhang Huan's first solo exhibition in London. The exhibition will feature a number of new paintings and sculptures from Zhang Huan's series of ash works. A monumental sculpture of a three-legged Buddha will be exhibited concurrently in the courtyard of the Royal Academy of Arts. Zhang Huan (born 1965) is one of the most vital and interesting artists working in China today. Since the early 1990s the departure point for his work has been the language of the human body, a language at times intensely autobiographical, and at other times highly politicised.

Yesterday
Author: Felicia Yap
Publisher: Hachette+ORM
ISBN: 0316465267
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 355
Book Description
In this heart-pounding mystery, a woman is found dead—but in a society where only the privileged have memories longer than a day, the chances of solving the crime seem futile. Imagine a world in which classes are divided not by wealth or religion but by how much each group can remember. Monos, the majority, have only one day's worth of memory; elite Duos have two. In this stratified society, where Monos are excluded from holding high office and demanding jobs, Claire and Mark are a rare mixed marriage. Clare is a conscientious Mono housewife, Mark a novelist-turned-politician Duo on the rise. They are a shining example of a new vision of tolerance and equality-until... A beautiful woman is found dead, her body dumped in England's River Cam. The woman is Mark's mistress, and he is the prime suspect in her murder. The detective investigating the case has secrets of his own. So did the victim. And when both the investigator's and the suspect's memories are constantly erased -- how can anyone learn the truth? Told from four different perspectives, that of Mark, Claire, the detective on the case, and the victim -- Felicia Yap's staggeringly inventive debut leads us on a race against an ever-resetting clock to find the killer. With the science-fiction world-building of Philip K. Dick and the twisted ingenuity of Memento, Yesterday is a thriller you'll never forget.
