Perception and Imaging: Photography--A Way of Seeing, 4/e (Paperback)

When you look at an image, what do you see and feel? What do you want your audience to see and feel when they view your work? In today's digital age, it has become all too easy to randomly click away, without really focusing on what exactly it is that you are trying to capture in your shot. For over fifteen years, Professor Richard Zakia has been helping thousands of photographers hone in on their creative vision through the inspirational, informative text and images included in his classic book, Perception and Imaging. In this updated fourth edition, Professor Zakia continues to share his wisdom in what is so much more than a step-by-step, technical photography instruction manual. Instead, it explores the fundamental act of photography - in other words, seeing - through a combination of technique, history, visual perception, philosophy, and psychology. Photographers of all levels will benefit from the information in this book, because it will help you to think more clearly about what it is that you want to convey in your images, no matter what level you are at in terms of technical skill.

當你看著一張圖片時，你看到什麼？你希望你的觀眾在觀看你的作品時看到和感受到什麼？在今天的數位時代，隨意點擊而不真正專注於你試圖在拍攝中捕捉到的內容已經變得太容易了。在過去的十五年中，Richard Zakia教授通過他的經典著作《感知與影像》中包含的啟發性和資訊性文字和圖像，幫助了成千上萬的攝影師專注於他們的創意視野。在這本更新的第四版中，Zakia教授繼續分享他的智慧，這本書遠不僅僅是一本逐步的技術攝影指南。相反，它通過技術、歷史、視覺感知、哲學和心理學的結合，探索了攝影的基本行為，也就是「看」。無論你在技術技能方面處於什麼水平，這本書中的信息都將對所有級別的攝影師有所裨益，因為它將幫助你更清楚地思考你想要在圖像中傳達的內容。
