Description

This book is a mission brief, a portfolio of photographic workshops, a personalised journal and an inspirational guide to putting the creativity back into your craft. It is filled with a year's worth of weekly commissions and concepts for conceiving and composing powerful photographs of the sky at night. From capturing meteor showers and auroras to focusing on the landscape around us at night, all the assignments in this book have been written to inspire you to embrace the possibilities of your camera. Whether you are photographing interstellar objects or locations on Earth with the night sky as a backdrop, each assignment encourages you to capture the world around you with just your camera, a tripod and your imagination. Full of technical advice and professional tips, the book includes space for you to add your own notes, lists and tech specs, creating a unique journal in which you can record the journey you have made with your imagery. Complete the assignments weekend by weekend over the course of a year, or dip in every time you need to bring a new concept or creative approach to your photography.
