For more than two decades, William Neill has been offering his thoughts and insights about photography and the beauty of nature in essays that cover the techniques, business, and spirit of his photographic life. Curated and collected here for the first time, and accompanying 128 reproductions of Neill's photographs, these essays are both pragmatic and profound, offering readers an intimate look behind the scenes at creative process behind Neill’s individual photographs as well as a discussion of the larger and more foundational topics that are key to his philosophy and approach to work.
Light on the Landscape covers core photographic fundamentals such as light, composition, camera angle, and exposure choices, but it also considers those subjects that are less frequently examined: portfolio development, marketing, printmaking, nature stewardship, inspiration, preparation, self-improvement, and more.
Light on the Landscape is also full of the kind of wisdom that only comes from a deeply thoughtful photographer who has spent a lifetime communicating with a camera. Incorporating the lessons within the book, you too can learn to achieve not only technically excellent and beautiful images, but photographs that truly rise above your best and reveal your deeply personal and creative perspective--your vision, your voice.
