Product Description
From Jim Krause comes the fifth book in the popular Index series: Photo Idea Index. This innovative guide:

-Provides designers with the information they need to take creative photographs, explore different digital manipulations, and use them in real-world design applications

-Shares the basics of technical information, then provides a wealth of inspiration, making this both a "what if" book and a "how to" book

-Explores low-cost and do-it-yourself ways to create unusual effects

-Speaks to designers' desires to use their own photos rather than costly stock photography

Full of out-of-the-ordinary ideas, this guide offers the trademark mix of inspiration and instruction that have made the previous books in the series a creative success.


Reviews


Good for learning photography
I own many of Jim Krause books. I've always enjoyed how he gives you examples on how to make a project better. This book was great. He gives lots of examples of photography, and how you can make a picture better. He doesn't say how you should do each photo but rather he shows how you might do it. As the photographer you need to figure a scene out and what work best. Krause shows you what might work best with this book. He also gives lots of tips on how to use photo editing programs(such as photoshop) to make your photos better or stand out. If you're a learning photographer this book will help to jump start your mind.

Great book!!!
This book is very inspiring, and has a lot of great Ideas. I was kind of in a slump and this book helped get me out of it. Many excellent shots. Even people w/o SLR's could really get inspired from it.

Get up and start enjoying photography
This book doesn't try to teach you everything there is to know on photography. But then again, do you really need to know everything? That's the real power of this book -- Inspiring and motivating you to get off your butt and start doing stuff. Any stuff, your way. You don't need fancy equipment. You don't need to be a technical guru. Just read this book and start exploring and enjoying photography.

I love the practicality of it -- from the physical feel of the book in your hands, to the readily-usable information inside. It's nice to keep around -- browse through it and kick-start your creativity.

It pushed my photos to the next level -- I grew accustomed getting appreciation for them from various people. It's a book you can still enjoy even after many reads. One of my most prized books.

great idea book
Great book for inspiring ideas. Love the "field guide" layout. Makes for quick reference. A must for every amateur photographer's library.

New level of photography
When you have reached, or think that you have reached what you feel is the zenith of your photographic skills, read this book and discover a whole new world of seeing and painting with light.
