Description
' For Andr and me, writing and speaking about personal approaches to photography means that we believe in every individual's capacity for meaningful self-expression....Our hope is that we have encouraged you to pursue the crafts of photography and of seeing for your own sake....'-Freeman Patterson The fifth book in Freeman Patterson's internationally acclaimed series of instructional books on photography and visual design, Photo Impressionism and the Subjective Image takes the photographer beyond the world of seeing to the world of feeling, beyond documentation to personal expression, and beyond physical fact to emotional reality. This edition features 100 stunning photographs with extended captions that include valuable technical information and personal commentary from both Freeman Patterson and acclaimed travel photographer Andr Gallant. A true collaborative effort, Photo Impressionism and the Subjective Image illustrates the superb craftsmanship behind beautiful photography.
