The Photographer's Vision: Understanding and Appreciating Great Photography

"Acclaimed international photographer and writer Michael Freeman takes the reader on a wonderful journey to understand and appreciate a great photograph. The Photographer's Vision features some of the world's greatest photographers past and present and examines what it takes to create award-winning imagery. Each genre of photography - whether photojournalism, fashion or fine art - requires a developed skill set influenced by an underlying passion and vision. These genres are explored in detail in this book, as are the skills necessary to compose and capture the dynamic range of subjects. Perhaps the most important lesson Michael Freeman shares is how to identify the qualities of a good photograph. Whether you are a gallery owner, photographer, or simply have an appreciation of photography, this book will inspire you to see more and be a better judge of what makes a good photograph."--San Francisco Book Review

"Michael Freeman is a photographer known internationally for his extensive work in Africa and especially Asia. He also has written numerous books about photography theory. He's currently on tour speaking on 'Storytelling Through Photos'. I had a chance to sit in on one of these lectures given at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa and afterwards was able to have a few moments with Michael to see how he got started, his views on photo essay structure, and what it is that keeps him going."--Examiner.com

"The Photographer's Vision has a power that grows the more you read and re-read it. The stories of great photographers and their images are engrossing...I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in seeing and understanding great photos or for those who want to improve their photographic eye."--Examiner.com

In The Photographer's Eye, Michael Freeman showed what a photographer needs to do in the instant before the shutter is released. In the sequel, The Photographer's Mind, he explained the way that professional photographers think a picture through before taking it. Both of these international best-sellers featured Michael's own photography: stunning landscapes, revealing portraits, and fascinating street photography. Now, in The Photographer's Vision, he examines the work of photography's greats, explaining how to look at a photo - and how to learn from looking at it.
