Photography

This book "is a guided tour of the cameraperson's art, from the beginnings (the camera obscura, the daguerreotype) to the present day (the digital revolution). We follow the photographer through the city streets, the war zone, the fashion studio and the art gallery, always in search of 'the decisive moment'. Focusing as much on the person behind the camera as on the final image, Dave Yorath looks at the conflicts between the photograph as impersonal record and as a form of self-expression ; between the 'real' image and its digitally manipulated alter ego ; between the photographer as technician and the photographer as artists. Along the way he provides some practical hints and tips to keep you snapping happily."--Jacket.
