Synopsis

With PhotoTips - Principles of Nature Photography, the Van den Bergs reveal their secrets - secrets that have kept them at the forefront of nature photography for many years, and that have enabled them to create the compelling images for more than 20 magnificent coffee-table books. Instead of producing an in-depth encyclopaedia for nature photographers, the Van den Bergs have opted to keep PhotoTips simple and to the point. By showing an image, and then revealing a tip for both beginners and pros based on that image, they have produced a unique book. In addition to the tips, the Van den Bergs teach readers how to take images similar to those in the book - how to think when capturing the image and which camera settings to use. Principles of Nature Photography covers the basic aspects of nature photography. The chapter photogear deals with the importance of the right equipment, and how to use the equipment you have to its full potential. In photocapture all aspects of image capture are covered, and photolighting discusses the importance of lighting and how to use light. In the chapter entitled phototales, readers will be entertained by some of the Van den Bergs' first-hand accounts of experiences on assignment. And if you are still hungry for more, photodefinitions will certainly satisfy all your needs.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Husband and wife award-winning photographers Philip and Ingrid van den Berg share a love of Africa and all its facets. It is their passion to capture unique moments in nature and share these with readers, through the pages of their wildlife books. Now retired from careers in environmental education and biological sciences, Philip and Ingrid have transformed a love of photography into a full-time "hobby", with several acclaimed wildlife books to their credit. With their extensive knowledge of the natural world coupled with their scientific backgrounds, they are an integral part of the HPH team of photographers and writers.

Heinrich van den Berg is an international award-winning wildlife photographer, and is also an accomplished writer and publisher. Based in Johannesburg, South Africa, Van den Berg is well known for pushing the boundaries of photography to create explosive images that are as beautiful as they are emotive. Van den Berg heads his own publishing company, HPH Publishing, and has successfully published over 40 full-colour wildlife titles since 2001. His books are highly acclaimed for both their quality and content. Heinrich and his wife Dana travel extensively in search of unique images, always with an eye for the unusual and a new perspective on the known world. Although Dana is a new addition to the team, she has already contributed substantially to the pool of photographs in the HPH Image Library. Along with other photographs from the HPH fold, Heinrich has featured prominently in numerous coffee-table books, calendars, magazine portfolios and other photographic publications worldwide. Both national and international magazines such as National Geographic, GEO, TERRA, Terra Sauvage, the New York Times, the Times of London, Getaway, Africa Geographic, Go! and numerous others have published HPH work. Van den Berg also shares his photography knowledge through exclusive workshops held across southern Africa.
