Book Description

September 7, 2010
Tired of playing it safe when it comes to exposure? For many digital photographers, exposure starts and ends at f/8 and 1/125 sec. But there's a point at which this sensible combination becomes formulaic—boring even. Extreme Exposure is the antidote to this rut, liberating amateur shooters to explore the extremes of shutter speed and aperture to capture creative, stunning images.
 
• Use extra-short shutter speeds to freeze movement too quick for the human eye.
• Try ultra-long shutter speeds to capture low-light scenes, fireworks, and star trails in the night sky.
• Shoot with wide-open apertures and Lensbabies for pinpoint focus.
• Use ultra-small apertures for virtually limitless depth of field.
 
Packed with techniques and images from expert photographer David Nightingale, as well as standout images from contributing photographers, Extreme Exposure frees you to move beyond conventional picture-taking to capture images that will get noticed.

4.0 out of 5 stars More inspiration than how-to, January 1, 2012

This review is from: Extreme Exposure: Pushing the Limits of Aperture and Shutter Speed for High-Impact Photography (Paperback)
Not really a tutorial type of book, more to inspire the imagination, but that's fine. Some good ideas probably more valuable to the intermediate photographer looking to try something new. There are some good tips sprinkled throughout of value to anyone. I hope this doesn't come off as a negative review, because its not, in fact I would purchase it again and recommend it to anyone looking to try something new and exotic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, December 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Extreme Exposure: Pushing the Limits of Aperture and Shutter Speed for High-Impact Photography (Paperback)
While this book covers a lot of photography basics, I have found lots of useful and interesting information nuggets sprinkled through the text. There are a lot of good ideas about ways to create different styles of photos using techniques that, for most people, are outside the box. Well written, excellent photos, up to date information.
Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspring book!, April 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Extreme Exposure: Pushing the Limits of Aperture and Shutter Speed for High-Impact Photography (Paperback)
I bought this on a whim and it has been enjoyable to look through. Mostly just a collection of interesting photos, most with interesting exposures. Some were rather boring and really rather plain, but other examples are technically very nice. Not much in the way of explanations but gives enough info to inspire and lead you in the right direction.
