Synopsis

Capturing the World is award-winning photographer Nick Rains's guide to capturing remarkable travel photos. This is not a regular photography tip book - this is about how to take the best photos in real world photography situations. Having been a professional photographer for the last 30 years, Nick has taken every genre of travel photo, from people and architecture to landscapes and nature. Nick will guide you through the process of taking a successful travel photo from beginning to end, using his own spectacular travel photos as examples. These examples demonstrate how it's not just about technical skill; the best photographers put a lot of effort into getting themselves into a position where the potential for great images is maximised, including researching, planning where to be and when, and thinking about some potential shots in advance. This full-colour and spectacularly illustrated book will show you how to shoot your best travel photos - and capture the world through your lens!
