Digital Plant Photography Summary

Digital Plant Photography: For Beginners to Professionals by Adrian Davies

Ever wondered how to get the best from your camera when taking photographs of plants and fungi in the garden or out in the field? Then this is the book for you. This beautifully illustrated guide is aimed both at photographers wishing to use plants as a rich source of subject matter, and at naturalist gardeners who want to use digital cameras to record plants in a meaningful yet attractive way. Numerous practical skills are clearly explained, from basic photography to more complex time-lapse and high-speed techniques. Unlike other guides, this book does not focus solely on flowers; equal prominence is given to seeds, leaves, pollen, wood and trunks, as well as to broader compositions. Digital Plant Photography delivers the secrets of the professionals to the amateur photographer.

Numerous practical skills are clearly explained, from basic photography to more complex time-lapse and high speed techniques. The author discusses the confusing symbols and menu choices that come along with a digital camera. Unlike some other guides, this book does not focus solely on flowers; equal prominence is given to seeds, leaves, pollen, wood and trunks. Containing 450 images with substantial captions, the book strikes a balance between the technical side and the compositional. Gardeners who are amateur photographers receive the professional tips they need to take successful photos. -- The Michigan Gardener * The Michigan Gardener *
