Remote Exposure: A Guide to Hiking and Climbing Photography

Though many hikers and climbers carry cameras with them,
they often come away feeling disappointed because their
images fail to visually translate their experiences. In
Remote Exposure Alexandre Buisse goes beyond the mere
basics of photography and gives you the tools needed to
create images that are not only of good technical quality
but that are compelling as well. This book will guide you
through the various options for equipment, since the
requirement for lightweight gear that is able to
withstand cold, adverse weather conditions presents
unique challenges. Learn about the importance of having
an efficient carrying system and a logical, planned
workflow. Throughout the book you will find advice on
where to point your camera and how to compose a strong
image. Included are specific requirements for rock
climbing, hiking, mountaineering, and camping. More
advanced photographic topics are also covered such as
digital capture and optimization techniques like high
dynamic range imaging (HDRI), panoramic stitching, and
how to achieve excellent results without a tripod. The
pages are filled with over 100 stunning images captured
by Buisse as he hiked and climbed through mountain ranges
on three continents. Photographers of all levels and
those who just appreciate beautiful images are sure to be
inspired by this book.
