Product Description
About the Author
Sue Bishop has been taking photographs for 18 years, and has always found flowers to be the subject she returns to with a passion. Her sumptuous images blur the boundaries between photography and art, with an emphasis on colour and form that often creates and abstract composition.
Sue has exhibited her work many times, including at the Mall Galleries and the Royal Horticultural Society in London. She has contributed photographs and articles to photographic magazines and has sold work for use in travel brochures and books, as well as selling print to a range of clients around the world. Her range of photographic greetings cards was shortlisted for the Henries Awards in 2000 and in the same year her photograph of a wildflower meadow in Andalucia was highly commended in the prestigious BG Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition and exhibited in the Natural History Museum, London, before going on tour worldwide.
In 1994, Sue and fellow photographer Charlie Waite founded Light & Land, which runs photographic tours to destinations all over the world.

Format:Hardcover
I have spent a happy few hours in bed reading this book completely, cover to cover - not something I've done in a while!
The book is very easy to read and covers all aspects of SLR photography of flowers - equipment, exposure, lighting, composition, techniques, colour, backgrounds, soft-focus, special effects. In fact the first few chapters are a great introduction to SLR photography in general.
Needless to say the photographs are beautiful and the book will be an inspiration to those thinking of flower photography.

The book itself was in extremely good condition for seconhand and has some useful information. However, it would have been useful to know, prior to purchasing, that it is not applicable to digital photography.

Book came very quickly and was packaged well. Fantastic photographs and very useful advice on taking better pictures. Would recommend any of these books by this author.
