- There is an equal emphasis on composing landscapes and composing people
- Bonus Edition: Many extra examples of people/object photography, how to choose the best photo from a “Spray and Pray”, and more sample Golden Ratio croppings.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

“This book is a really great departure from the wonderful HDR eBook/DVD series that Trey has created. The contents of this eBook are thoughtfully laid out and touch on some visual concepts that really got me thinking about how I compose my images (I was especially keen on reading about the Golden Ratio). Trey breaks the mold here and offers the book in a landscape perspective, which I really enjoyed. The text and images look fantastic when read on the iPad, too. You won’t go wrong picking this up for yourself. Every page is solid.”

– Brian Matiash

“Okay, I’ve read about composition and studied examples before, but this was outstanding. Reading the book, I was immediately able to identify some past mistakes with photos that didn’t quite feel right, and returned to them and recrop them into far improved compositions. I wasn’t bad at composition previously, but my successes were all often done by feel and ‘rule of thirds’, and all too often, RoT just wasn’t feeling right for pictures – in the future, I’ll be using your far superior points to make sure I get the shots I want.”
