Focus on Photography: Analysing and Discussing Photos

With the book Focus on Photography: Analysing and Discussing Photos, you'll learn to analyse photography in clear, structured steps. Using the overviews in this book, you can easily identify subjects, visual elements, the photographer's strategy, and the relevance for the viewer.

You can use the list of a thousand words as a writing aid. You'll want to know the nine questions about visual elements by heart as a framework for your public discussions. You'll discover the various ways in which context influences the meaning of images, and learn that this enriches photography as a whole. You'll find that your audience feels more satisfied when you're able to explain an image to them.

Whether you're a photography teacher or editor, mentor, jury member, gallery owner, reviewer, or photographer, you'll need more words to articulate the insights you have and why your choices matter. This book helps you do exactly that.
