ICELAND, A Monograph – The Print and Process
Just released early this morning, comes ICELAND, A Monograph from the Craft & Vision photo eBook library! ICELAND, A Monograph – The Print & The Process by David duChemin provides an intimate look at David’s photography during his recent time in Iceland. David’s Print & Process series does a great job of demonstrating both why and how David’s photos were created from conception, and to me, provides the most concise educational experience for all aspiring photographers.
My Thoughts on the Content…
It seems that with each Print and Process book, David manages to step up his game. The images draw you in; I found myself spending a fair bit of time exploring both the mood and composition of each photo in this one. This one is particularly unique in that it includes some rare tilt-shift photographs which work beautifully with the landscape and mood found in these images. Tilt shift photography is not exactly something you see everyday, so it was a welcome inclusion which made me say “wow, cool!”
Additionally, David demonstrates his masterful use of ND grad filters, with clear examples of how they were used to create some brilliantly realistic imagery which jumps off the page. Also, another “cool” tidbit which David includes are a couple of his own Lightroom presets used on images in this eBook. These alone are worth it!
What the Publishers Have to Say…
“ICELAND, A Monograph – The Print & The Process is the latest eBook by David duChemin. The Print & The Process series is the perfect format to show David’s photographic vision and creative process behind his recent trip to one of the world’s most stunning places. Moved by the incredible landscapes, the vastness of the open spaces, and the extreme weather, David created photographs that first and foremost inspired him.
ICELAND, A Monograph, is a showcase of exceptional photographs and it holds nothing back with respect to how the images were created. ??This eBook is the first look at 39 of the images David created in Iceland. The curtain is pulled back on technique – like how he used three different ND filters to work through an exposure problem, as well as the more internal processes related to creation – like finding inspiration and working through the frustrations of finding one’s vision. The process and thinking behind those photographs are explained from a technical angle and the discussion of post-processing includes two free downloadable Adobe Lightroom Presets. For you travelers, David also briefly discusses logistics involved in the travel and supporting the digital workflow while tenting his way through Iceland.
ICELAND, A Monograph – The Print & The Process is larger than usual – a full 65 spreads of photographs and insights that will inspire as you develop your own craft. This is easily one of the books about which we are the proudest! The downloadable PDF is just $5USD.?”
