Still Life: A Guide To Professional Lighting Techniques FROM THE PUBLISHER
Still Life, the third title in this series, offers an invaluable insight into this demanding genre, one which covers an immense range of subjects on both a commercial and personal level. Shots of every kind feature here, from an exploding piggy bank to a crammed lost property office to a row of peas in a pod, and in each case the lighting set-ups are discussed in detail.
Looking at over 50 photographs, Still Life shows how different approaches work, whether they involve the elaborate use of five different heads, or merely ambient light. Hicks and Schultz explain the techniques and reveal the secrets of top professionals.
