The natural world is probably one of the most common, yet most challenging, subjects in photography.Photographing Naturetakes students who can't afford--or aren't able to attend--Brooks Institute through the same course of instruction that Clevenger has been teaching at the school for over 20 years. In this gorgeous, four-color course-in-a-book, each chapter opens with a spectacular photo spread from nature that Clevenger uses to illustrate themes and techniques essential to mastering nature photography. Readers will feel like one of the class as he talks about how each photo was captured, the tools and techniques used both in the field and back at the computer, and typical problems related to capturing such a photo, along with solutions. Each chapter also includes sample Q&A sessions taken from Brooks classes as well as assignments. Readers will also be encouraged to share their homework on thePhotographing NatureFlickr site, where they can compare their work with fellow "classmates." Perhaps the only photographer to spawn an urban legend through his jaw-dropping photography (http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/iceberg.asp), Clevenger's book aims to give photographers motivation to spend more time making their images, knowledge about the equipment and techniques used to capture dramatic nature images, and insight into new and creative ways to look at our natural world. InPhotographing Naturereaders get an elite, Brooks-based education for the budget price of just one book.
