I just love the books that are produced by the Craft & Vision folks. They’ve come up with a great business model - find photographers who have interesting things to say, beautiful images, and then plop them down into a fantastic template and offer the product at a great price.
Close To Home, Finding Great Photographs in Your Own Backyard, is the latest in the Craft & Vision eBook line-up. This inspiring ebook by Stuart Sipahigil is about the challenges of finding the extraordinary in what we’ve come to see as mundane. Taking great photographs does not require traveling to an exotic place. By digging a little deeper and seeing things around you more clearly you can reinvigorate your photography and find new images in familiar territory. Through practical insights and creative exercises you’ll discover that the grass is not always greener on the other side.
This ebook provides photographers of all levels with the tools and encouragement you need to help you get out of the ruts we all fall into. Your city, your neighborhood, and even your backyard are all full of opportunities for great photographs. The goal of this ebook is to help you see those opportunities and the photographs that lie within them.
Close to Home is 37 spreads of photographs, insights, and exercises that will inspire as you develop your own craft. I love these types of ebooks and enjoy reading every one of them. I especially like the focus of this one because I sometimes think that I HAVE to travel a great distance to get those shots. This one makes it clear that you just don’t have to, and sometimes we all need that kind of reminder.
The downloadable PDF is just $5 USD. So, if you’d like to purchase this or ANY of the eBooks in the Craft & Vision line, please click here!
