"Seeing is the ability to observe what is before the photographer and visualize how it
will appear in an image..."

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, photographic composition has been taught
mostly by applying the principles from the field of graphic design. But the factor that
distinguishes the work of master photographers is their ability to see and describe
scenes visually. In his newly published book, Photography The Art of Composition, Bert
Krages introduces a radically different approach that applies modern cognitive science
to show photographers how they can develop their perceptual skills. The book follows
contemporary educational methods used to teach fine arts such as drawing and painting,
concentrating on teaching the perception of critical visual elements and understanding
how they will be rendered photographically.
