Full Description
Join Paul Nicklen - renowned conservationist, wildlife and art photographer - for a rare, tell-all masterclass in photography. Drawing on more than three decades of experience, including 20 years of shooting for National Geographic, Nicklen distils his craft into 20 key lessons, each with a clear and simple takeaway.
Whether you're a beginner picking up a camera for the first time or an experienced photographer wanting to refine your practice, this is the essential handbook for all photographers interested in the natural world.
In this book you will:
Learn essential practices to spark creativity and develop your own style, from "sketching with a camera" to Nicklen's 20-60-20 philosophy for experimentation.
Gain confidence and build your profile through techniques for silencing self-doubt, setting achievable goals and embracing failure as part of growth.
Read the stories behind Nicklen's iconic wildlife images, including photographing emperor penguins in Antarctica and grizzly bears in the Canadian Arctic.
Discover how to use your photography ethically and powerfully, capturing images that respect nature while telling stories that inspire change.
Try out projects you can start close to home - from studying animal behaviour in your backyard to building a compelling photo essay - and apply them wherever your camera takes you.
Illustrated throughout with Nicklen's award-winning images, this is your invitation from the master of art and wildlife photography to see the natural world differently, using your camera as a tool for art, joy and impact.
