Throughout history, artists around the world have been drawn to the nude. Photographers, too, have been fascinated by the subject, and many of the medium’s most enduring images have depicted the unclothed human form. But the nude is among the most challenging of subjects to master. The camera’s gaze is indiscriminate and unforgiving, so conveying a sense of artistry and subtlety requires careful control over the posing and, crucially, lighting of the nude. And that’s where this guide can help. Lighting The Nude (Third Edition) reveals the lighting secrets of some of the top photographers working today. It showcases over 100 images of the nude, in a wide variety of styles. Each image is accompanied by detailed lighting diagrams and an explanation and analysis of what makes the shot work. Whether you’re a beginner to this style of photography or a seasoned professional, you’ll find plenty of inspirational lighting ideas to copy or adapt for your own work, making this an essential reference for every studio photographer’s bookshelf.

Expozice je základem každé digitální fotografie a tato kniha vám ukáže, jak na to. Ediční řada Fotografie v praxi je určena všem zájemcům o digitální fotografii (i když ji mohou využít i fotografové pracující stále s klasickými filmovými fotoaparáty). Postupně v této řadě vycházejí specializované publikace pro různé okruhy problémů, které zajímají každého fotografa. Výhodou těchto knih je skutečnost, že se v nich stále dokola neopakují informace o základech fotografování, fungování digitálního fotoaparátu a podobné věci, kterým se v jiných publikacích věnuje spousta místa. Každá z knih se zabývá pouze určitou oblastí fotografování a probírá ji důkladně v rozsahu vhodném pro začínajícího až středně pokročilého fotografa. Expozice může být technicky dobrá a špatná, může ale být i kreativní a může z obyčejného snímku udělat snímek zajímavý. Co a jak expozici určuje, jak expozici měřit a jak jednotlivé parametry, čas, clona a citlivost ISO ovlivňují vzhled výsledného snímku, to je obsahem této knihy. Opustíte režim AUTO a naučíte se optimálně měřit expozici v nejrůznějších světelných podmínkách a pracovat v režimech, které vám dovolí tvořit kreativně, a ne pouze akceptovat automatické nastavení fotoaparátu. Knihy řady Fotografie v praxi obsahují i cvičení, která by měl čtenář absolvovat, a ukázku, jak tato cvičení splnili studenti autorových kurzů. Podnětné je i autorovo hodnocení a poznámky k těmto ukázkovým fotografiím.
