Critique - A Path To Creating Exceptional Photography

By Roxanne Bouche' Overton

Every photographer wants the same thing. They want to take consistently good pictures. Actually, they want their photographs to be exceptional. But when you ask most photographers what makes a photograph work, it's very hard for them to describe what they mean. They will hem and haw about how it depends on the type of photograph, or the subject, or ... Roxanne's book on critique will prove definitively that it doesn't matter what subject you shoot. You will evaluate each photograph by the exact same standards. It takes something that seems very complex and makes it very simple. Anyone can do it.We all photograph exactly the same thing every time we click the shutter. We shoot light, matter and atmosphere. Every time. So if we are shooting exactly the same thing, doesn't it make sense that every photograph shares the same elements or building blocks? Poor photography doesn't use those building blocks effectively while great photography does. That's the difference. Critique - A Path To Creating Exceptional Photography will teach you how to evaluate individual photographs so you understand why they are good or bad. That understanding will teach you what you want to incorporate into your own work. If a photographer doesn't understand what makes an exceptional photograph exceptional, how can they ever hope to do consistently good work? If they can't put into spoken language the elements needed, how will they achieve their photographic goals - their visual language? Without the basic understanding of what works, the path to creating good work can be exceptionally slow and frustrating.This revolutionary concept will break down barriers that keep talented people from reaching their full potential. Roxanne has spent years distilling these building blocks into an easy formula to help you learn what makes an exceptional photograph so good. Once a photographer understands why the photograph works, it becomes much easier for them to follow a path to excellence.Roxanne offers examples of completely different styles of photography and points out how they are related. Read and discover how a portrait and a steam engine are judged by the exact same criteria. Read and understand how once you see this, you will start refining your own eye in determining what you like and how it was achieved. Critique - A Path To Creating Exceptional Photography will let you move forward in your skill level at your own pace. It's easy and it's fun. You will learn how to use the internet as a multi-faceted tool that will result in shooting better images. Once you know what you like and why you like it, your own personal vision will start to expand and refine. You will learn to think differently when you look at things. You will learn to see. And you will learn to capture what you want your viewer to see. You will be on the path to consistently fine photography!
