Basics Photography is the new series of Basics academic titles from AVA Publishing.

Together, the titles form the fundamental elements of photography and provide the reader with a comprehensive reference tool.
A
full and intimate understanding of colour is vital to the creation of dramatic, emotive and powerful photographic images. Whether we consider the colour of the light illuminating our subject or the colours of the individual components within the composition, the way we choose to use colour will greatly influence the success of our image making.
Capturing Colour will guide the beginner through the basics of colour theory and relationships, how human vision perceives colour, the colour of light, how to successfully utilise filtration and white balance, how to use colour to generate original, dynamic images and finally how to successfully translate captured colour into the photographic print. The book is fully illustrated with clear and concise diagrams, inspirational photographs and is packed with hints and tips to help you to develop a mastery of colour and create your own exciting images
