Bildgestaltung

How do you achieve expressive photos? Photos that not only showcase your eye for the subject and your technical skills but are also consciously and consistently designed? With composition! André Giogoli and Katharina Hausel train photographers at the Lette-Verein and show you in this book everything you need to know about photographic design elements: line, shape, space, color, light, and much more. Everything is discussed using concrete photos – from all subjects, old and new, representational and abstract. This way, you will learn to "read" images yourself. After reading, you will view photos differently and find more joy in your own works!
