追光,等光,有时帮助光,最后捕捉光,是专业摄影师持续关注的点,有些摄影师甚至痴迷于此。迈克尔•弗里曼凭借四十年与光打交道的经验,采用简单而实用的方法来诠释、应对和捕捉摄影中最有价值的商品。
实用的建议分为三个简单的部分。“等待”、追逐“”和“帮助”。从掌握耐心这门艺术开始,认识到预测和规划即将到来的绚丽光线的巨大价值。然后,通过快速思考和快速反应,学会在中途应对短暂和转瞬即逝的光线条件的技巧。
最后,充分利用你所掌握的工具来增强和操纵你所发现的光线,涵盖了从现场拍摄的选择到后期制作的技术转换。这就是一个专业摄影师的工作方法——解释、处理和掌握出现的任何灯光情况,无论如何都要拍出想要的照片。
For professional photographers, chasing the light, waiting for it, sometimes helping it, and finally capturing it is a constant preoccupation and for some, an obsession. Drawing on four decades of working with light, Michael Freeman takes a simple but practical approach to interpreting, reacting to, and capturing photography's most valuable commodity.
Practical advice is organised into three straightforward sections: Waiting, Chasing, and Helping. Begin by mastering the art of patience, and recognise the immense value of anticipating and planning for gorgeous light that's just over the horizon. Then learn the techniques to meet otherwise transient and fleeting lighting conditions halfway, with quick thinking and fast reactions.
Finally, make the most of the tools at your disposal to enhance and manipulate light as you find it, covering everything from in-the-field shooting choices to technical transformations in post-production. This is the method of a working professional - to interpret, approach, and master whatever lighting situation is thrown at you and always get the shot, no matter what.
