Making Light is perfect for the photographer that is just starting out with off-camera lighting. It takes you through all you need to know to get started. So what about you folks that already read the Strobist blog or go to a Joe McNally workshop? Well, the good news is it’s also suitable for you. You will learn something from it. It might be information on how someone travels by bicycle across continents while carrying lighting gear or it may be how to set up for flash for use in TTL.
More than that – and like all Craft and Vision offerings – this publication is worth it for the photography alone. To conclude the eBook, Piet walks you through case studies of nine photographs and provides descriptions and discussion on the lighting setups and other shooting data. The Indian butcher alone is worth the price of the eBook.
