Book Overview

In Nature's Image: Chapters On Pictorial Photography is a book written by Washington Irving Lincoln Adams and first published in 1898. The book is a comprehensive guide to pictorial photography, a style of photography that seeks to create artistic and expressive images rather than purely documentary ones. Adams covers a wide range of topics related to pictorial photography, including composition, lighting, exposure, and printing techniques. He also discusses the use of different types of cameras, lenses, and other equipment. One of the key themes of the book is the importance of capturing the natural beauty of the world around us. Adams emphasizes the need for photographers to develop a deep appreciation for nature, and to use their skills to create images that reflect its majesty and wonder. Throughout the book, Adams provides numerous examples of his own work, as well as that of other notable pictorial photographers of the time. He also includes detailed technical information and practical advice for photographers of all levels of experience. In Nature's Image: Chapters On Pictorial Photography is a fascinating glimpse into the early days of photography, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art and craft of photography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
