shadow, narrative, and symbolism. Along with the descriptions are recreations of the images
that use similar subject matter and settings, as well as the steps to help you compose and
manipulate your own version of the image. As you work through the book you'll find that the
same concepts and themes were used by many of the photographers, but the meanings change as
