Photography

<p>There are many facets to outdoor photography, and the areas of application are sometimes extreme. Digital photography has become indispensable today. Bernd Ritschel provides honest and critical knowledge about the many different approaches, explains the technology and offers lots of information about equipment and image processing. Of course, a large chapter is devoted to practical tips for photographing nature: how do you skillfully stage peaks? What are the best lighting conditions? How can you "freeze" movement? How do you take photos in cold and icy conditions, in heat and dusty sand? <br>Ritschel takes away the fear of getting to grips with the technology and knows how to inspire beginners. But even experienced photographers will be able to expand their know-how with this book and get even closer to the perfect picture.<br>Bernd Ritschel, a professional photographer for more than 20 years, spends every free minute in the mountains. Whether it's peaks over 7000 meters, the wintry Arctic or tropical mountains in the rainforest, the camera is always with him. The result is over 20 photo albums and numerous publications in major magazines. He successfully passes on his knowledge in his photo workshops. His experiences and his personal field of work in mountain and outdoor photography are also a central theme in this book. Through the interplay of knowledge and his own experience, he knows how to impart great expertise and "let the sparks fly". The result is a practice-oriented work on outdoor photography that not only conveys the theory, but also allows the reader to share in the wealth of experience of a professional photographer.
