Take Five! for Better Photos

"Wow!"

Is that the kind of reaction you get when you show people the pictures you've taken? Or do you get the stifled yawn, the furtive glance at the clock, the "those are nice" comments? If you're not getting the response you want, don't give up! With five quick, easy-to-use methods, you can put some "Wow!" into the pictures you take.

Even if you have no interest in becoming a "pro" photographer, wouldn't it be nice to get sincere compliments from your family and friends when they see what you can do with your camera? And wouldn't it be nice if you could do that without spending a lot of money or time in learning all the nitty-gritty details of photography?

With easy-to-read text and easy-to-understand concepts, this guide will help you make small changes with big results. It presents five main take-away concepts that are quick to read and simple to use. Each concept is explained in enough detail to make sure you understand, but not so much that it overwhelms or bores you. Take Five! for Better Photos was written by Stuart J. Whitmore, a photographer with many years of experience and whose photos have been used around the world in books, Web sites, posters, and more.

Photography is all about seeing. So, before-and-after comparison photos are included so you can see what the book explains. You aren't expected to have a photography studio. There is no need for expensive equipment. To prove this, the photos in the book were created in "normal" environments using a camera you might have at home.

Want a better idea of what you will find inside this useful resource? Here's an example... If the book talked about diffusing on-camera flash, this is how it might look:

The flash built into your camera creates a harsh light and often causes "red eye" problems. To get better photos when you're using on-camera flash, try diffusing it using a commercial or home-made diffuser (something that lets light through, but you can't see through it directly). A home-made diffuser can be made with pieces of plastic cut from a milk jug or similar thin, white plastic. An example of a commercial diffuser is the Gary Fong Puffer Pop Up Flash Diffuser, which you can find at the following Web address: http://jppi.info/Diffuser

In these pictures, the photo on the left was made without a diffuser, and the photo on the right was made with a home-made diffuser. If you compare the lighting on the model's skin, you'll see the diffused version is less harsh and more pleasing. You'll also see a more relaxed, less "squinty" expression.

In addition to the five main points, there are several bonus mini-tips throughout the book. Like the free bonus tip shown below, each bonus mini-tip in the book gives you even more resources to create eye-catching pictures. To make it easy to read the whole book quickly and get the most important information as fast as possible, the bonus tips are clearly set apart from the main text. That way, you can skip over them at first, and return to read them later if you wish.
