The Art of Photography
summary
Ten years of work condensed into practical rules and exact settings: exposure is ISO, shutter speed, aperture — use aperture priority + auto ISO for control, swap to manual or fixed ISO for long exposures like the 8‑minute Bryce Canyon shot, and follow the 1/focal‑length handheld rule to avoid blur. Examples show freezing action (1/400s biker), smoothing water with multi‑second shutter, and creative blur in a plasma ball test. Use histogram and exposure compensation (snow +1‑2 stops), pack polarizers, graduated ND and a big‑stopper for long exposures.
