The topics in the book centre around hands-on applications, illustrated by little-known photographic processes that are inexpensive and easily accessible to students.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis second edition covers traditional topics such as the nature of light, geometrical optics, two-dimensional design, the physics of both photochemical and photo-electronic light detectors, the elements of exposure, colour synthesis, and image manipulation. Less familiar topics are also included such as the role of symmetry in art and physics, the use of historical processes in contemporary art photography, the nature of shadows in relation to both eclipses and camera-less photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is appropriate for undergraduate students enrolled on interdisciplinary photography courses as well as photographers, artists and scientists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eUses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics in an interdisciplinary format\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProvides answers to basic questions about how photography fits in as an art, and about the nature of art itself\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplores the nature of physics as part of the study of the natural world as well as the nature of science\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProvides practical knowledge of technical aspects of photography\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Beaver\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 075033701X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780750337014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e IOP Publishing Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/27\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 1.44d","brand":"John Beaver","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123219230975,"sku":"9780750337014","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e7943c79-794b-4842-9aae-f95b01b1ad3a.jpg?v=1687429619","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/photography-second-edition-john-beaver-9780750337014","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
