This highly respected text, now in paperback, has been thoroughly updated and revised.
It introduces a logical theory of photographic lighting - one that teaches beginning
photographers to predict results before setting up lights. This is not primarily a how-
to book with only set examples for photographers to follow. Rather, Light: Science and
Magic provides the reader with a comprehensive theory of the nature and principles of
light to allow individual photographers to use lighting to express their own creativity.
Numerous photographs and illustrations provide clear examples of the theories delineated
within the text, while sidebars highlight special lighting questions.

Although styles of photographic lighting continue to change, Light: Science and Magic
does not go out of fashion because it is not based on style; rather it is based on the
behavior of light. These principles will not change until fundamental physics does.

*Highly respected text on lighting theory covering the principles, applications, and
equipment for informed lighting decisions
*Sidebars highlight special lighting questions
