Hi group
Any recommendations on books about composition? It seems like all the classics are now out of print. |

Any recommendations on books about composition? http://www.freemanpatterson.com/ ... he's a great workshop instructor and photographer and I'd recommend two of his books, "Photography and the Art of Seeing" and "Photo Impressionism and the Subjective Image". He really has 'the eye' and looks at things differently than most of us. Most of the John Shaw books have good info on composition and technique. Art Wolfe has a good book out on technique with a former Audubon editor, Martha something (forgot the last name, she married Kevin Schaffer later). It was interesting to read her comments from the standpoint of a photo editor and why certain images were chosen or rejected. Bill |

I don't know which books are considered classics, but one that has useful information, and was still available from B&H last year is Bert Krages' "Photography -- the art of composition", from Allworth Press (www.allworth.com) ISBN 1--58115-409-7 |
