Product Description

Product Description

Aimed at all photographers with an interest in gardens, from amateurs who need to learn techniques to professionals wanting to hone their skills, this book is illustrated with the author's own work. He leads the reader through the variety of approaches to garden photography, analyzing vistas, close-ups and abstracts, and offering advice on coping with light and weather to produce the best results, whatever the conditions. There are also insights into the practicalities of making a living from photography. Clive Nichols's photographs of English gardens have appeared in leading magazines, and in 1992 exhibitions of his work were held in at the Ilford Gallery in London, and at the Chelsea Flower Show.

5.0 out of 5 stars This man turns garden photography into an art form., 23 Feb 2005
By Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
There are ways of photographing pants which show the subject quite adequately for what it is. Then there are ways of photographing plants which brings the resultant picture to life in such a way as to almost reproduce the subject's very scent. Clive Nichols' photographs fall into the latter category.

In a book thoughtfully divided into extensive sections on; Equipment, Techniques, Weather, Four Seasons and finally Plants & Gardens, we are taken on a journey which covers every aspect of this subject. Whilst many of the pictures are clearly from large and extensive gardens, others are of a pile of leaves or a close-up of a particular flower that could so easily have been in my garden or yours. The point is, we are shown how to photograph gardens as well as flowers and that is all we can ask of any book on the subject.

A worthy addition to the photographer's bookshelf - and perhaps a subject to consider when in-between assignments.
