Learning to Light: Easy and Affordable Techniques for the Photographer FROM THE PUBLISHER
Amateurs who assume that artificial light is too technical and expensive for their use will quickly dispel that thought.
The equipment for each effect is shown, followed by setups, a discussion on how to measure and modify light by using reflectors and diffusers, then how to mix flash and available light. Concluding chapters focus on still lifes, portraits, nudes, and interiors, with assignments for each.
