But where most macro photography books focus on capuring subjects in nature, Peterson promises to go beyond, teaching you to photograph a range of subjects from animals and plants from the garden, beach, or mountains to objects found in the kitchen, supermarket, even the junkyard. In addition to information on equipment, exposure, light, and composition, his book will feature elements of technique that go beyond the norm, teaching you to shoot not just what is generally considered close-up, but to go even closer to the point of abstraction. He will also show you how to produce the intimacy of a close-up within a larger shot--how to capture the look in your subject's eyes without compromising the clarity of the surrounding scene. And as always, Peterson offers his signature touch with his personal terminology: in what he likes to call "Pop Junk" he shows how combining creativity with the right digital technology can turn close-up photos of the most ordinary objects into surprising pieces of art.</DIV></DIV> 5533822 31 3 2009 Understanding Close-up Photography: Creative Close Encounters with or without a Macro Lens total:4|5:3|4:1|3:0|2:0|1:0| 4 19 16 1 5 0 false false Fri Oct 02 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 30 05:54:12 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 02 22:39:44 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Thu Nov 19 13:29:00 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 19 13:29:00 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Nov 13 06:40:28 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 13 06:40:34 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Sep 28 16:59:08 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 28 16:59:08 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 23 19:53:33 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 19:53:44 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 22:26:12 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 22:26:12 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 20:16:45 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 20:16:45 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 19:20:36 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 19:20:36 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 20 20:28:10 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 06 05:44:00 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 20:28:10 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jul 07 16:48:32 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 07 16:48:32 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Oct 23 15:37:27 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 22:26:58 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 13:48:26 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jun 02 19:37:28 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 02 19:37:53 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu May 21 08:05:34 -0700 2009 Thu May 21 08:05:34 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue May 12 01:42:04 -0700 2009 Tue May 12 01:42:04 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jan 26 20:56:16 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 26 20:56:16 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 21 10:13:36 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 21 10:13:36 -0800 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=5466216
