Digital Photography:
From the bookjacket: Exploring the extremes of the planet has always offered rich material and an irresistible challenge to photographers. Although the revolution in digital photography has not made it any easier to access—or indeed survive in—these extreme locations and environments, it has completely transformed the way that images of such places are both captured and “published.” Communications technology means that digital images captured in one corner of the world can be transmitted instantly to the opposite corner, and can appear on a website within minutes of being photographed. Consequently, the majority of today’s travel and adventure photographers are now shooting digital. The technical challenges of fragile electronics, batteries, computers, storage, on-location editing, and satellite transmission have turned extreme digital photography into a unique blend of technology and art. This book explores the work of the world's leading digital photographers, and offers practical guidance and advice that will help photographers prepare for the most extreme assignments, expeditions, and adventure activities. Contributing photographers: Among the digital photographers who are interviewed, or whose work is published in "Extreme Digital Photography" are the following.
