The Essential Color Manual for Photographers, the latest addition to the Essential Manuals series, is a unique reference and inspiration resource. Clear, concise explanations demystify every aspect of working with color in the camera and in the digital darkroom. The book explores how cameras record color, light, and color temperature, and how to capture color accurately in different climactic and lighting conditions. It also explains the mechanics of working with color channels and color systems, using monitors, editing color information, correcting casts and anomalies, and creating specialized images such as monochromes and duotones. Inspiring yet practical sections on color saturation, recording the natural world, shooting interiors, and capturing skin tones make this the definitive how-to guide to color.
