Master Photography

"Tracy covers photography from A-Z (aperture to zoom lenses). SPECTACULAR photographs throughout illustrate the well-written text. There is so much history of photography here, that I am surprised I didn't know, or perhaps had forgotten some details during my 55 years taking photos and on production sets. From Camera Obscura to AI, -powered algorithms Tracy covers it all. Amazing illustrations throughout, with examples punctuated by Tracy's own photographs (most available for purchase on her website, using hyperlinks). The path to becoming a great photographer and cinematographer starts with the basics. Tracy offers this and so much more! For every aspiring still photographer and cinematographer... ""Master Photography"" is a ""must read"".
