Though this book is written primarily for the person just taking up photography, it is the author's hope that everyone interested in making better pictures may find it helpful. Nearly every type of photography and practically all phases of picture-making, together with the operation of all types of amateur equipment, are discussed. Assuming that the person just beginning his study of the subject should not be barraged with technical terms before learning their meaning, the material is arranged in logical order, with all the theory set forth and explained at the outset (Part I), before the discussion of the actual making of pictures (Part II). Matters pertaining to picture taking, in turn, are discussed before processing and darkroom technique (Part III). The photos have been selected to illustrate the text and are not intended to be examples of salon prints.
