Light Science & Magic by Fil Hunter
Light Science and Magic provides you with a comprehensive theory of the nature and principles of light, with examples and instructions for practical application."This book offers a set of tools that a photographer can use to promote their own sense of art and beautyWhile your photographs reflect your individual taste and vision, the tools in this book give you options to highlight or diminish the elements in the photograph and as a result, lift those images to something more, something even better. The authors have done an amazing job by writing about a difficult subject in an easy style that allows the reader to fully understand the concepts of lighting and how it will shape your images." - Apogee Photo Magazine
