About this listen
Photography has really changed over the years. Gone are the days of film photography, when it would take at least several hours or even days to see photos of moments you captured. With the advent of digital cameras, almost everyone around the world can take his or her photos and view them instantly without any form of processing. However, the challenge is that most of us don't know how to actually capture amazing photos with our digital cameras. What this means is that we end up producing photos that suck, to say the least! What happens after that is that we start blaming the camera for not taking great photos. Others start blaming the weather, the lighting, and all sorts of things but themselves for not taking excellent photos. But the truth is that your camera has no problem; it is working just fine! The problem lies squarely with you.
This book will teach you everything you want to know about digital photography, including how to make the most of your camera's exposure triangle, how to compose photos, the composition rules to use, and a lot more. Say good-bye to boring photos once you listen to and implement what this book teaches.
Here is a preview of what you can expect to learn:
- The Basics of Digital Photography
- How Digital Cameras Work
- How to Get the Most from the Exposure Triangle
- How to Capture Excellent Photos by Mastering the Shutter Speed, ISO, and Aperture
- How to Use Different Photo Composition Rules to Your Advantage
- How to Take Good Care of Your Camera
- What You Should Protect Your Digital Camera From
- And much, much more!

Regarded as a masterpiece today, 2001: A Space Odyssey received mixed reviews. Despite the success of Dr. Strangelove, director Stanley Kubrick wasn't yet recognized as a great filmmaker, and 2001 was radically innovative, with little dialogue and no strong central character. Author Michael Benson explains how 2001 was made, telling the story primarily through the two people most responsible for the film, Kubrick and science fiction legend Arthur C. Clarke. Benson interviewed Clarke many times, and has also spoken at length with Kubrick's widow, Christiane.

Story4 out of 5 stars 30
In this thought-provoking exploration, Matthew May defines elegance as the elusive combination of unusual simplicity and surprising power, and pinpoints the four key elements that characterize it: seduction, subtraction, symmetry, and sustainability. In a story-driven narrative that sheds light on the need for elegance in design, engineering, physics, art, urban planning, sports, and work, May offers a surprising array of stories that illustrate why what's "not there" often matters more than what is.

Regarded as a masterpiece today, 2001: A Space Odyssey received mixed reviews. Despite the success of Dr. Strangelove, director Stanley Kubrick wasn't yet recognized as a great filmmaker, and 2001 was radically innovative, with little dialogue and no strong central character. Author Michael Benson explains how 2001 was made, telling the story primarily through the two people most responsible for the film, Kubrick and science fiction legend Arthur C. Clarke. Benson interviewed Clarke many times, and has also spoken at length with Kubrick's widow, Christiane.

The True Story of The Coward Brothers follows two musical brothers – one English, one American, both the illegitimate sons of dubious parentage who may, as they claim to be, "one and half-brothers" – perhaps a reference to the disparity in their height and relative talents.

Fresh off the success of her groundbreaking first play, A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window tells the tragicomic story of a young bohemian couple in New York's Greenwich Village, struggling to do what's right in a world that rewards everything that's wrong. Sidney is a dreamer who wants his own Walden Pond; Iris is a budding actress whose own backstory is a performance. They're caught in a moment where, "the world is about to crack right down the middle," as the play tackles racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, liberal complacency, and more.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.
