I den här boken har jag tagit min inspiration från IPCC rapporten som släpptes den 9 augusti 2021. Samtidigt har jag låtit bilderna illustrera vad som kan hända ominte nödvändiga beslut fattas. Men hela boken är också en uppmaning till våra politiker:ACT NOW!

In the illustration of the apple trees (left image), the apples jump out convincingly because the red is opposite to green in the colour spectrum. However, when you convert that image to black-and-white (right image), the apples and leaves are converted to a very similar grey tone and hence blend together to make for a messy photograph. In the book, you will learn how to make an outstanding black-and-white image. In Chapter 10, you will discover a propriety observation that Darren shares based on his 40 years of experience as a professional photographer. Your eyes will always go to the lightest or darkest part of the image. In Chapter 12, you will master the art of tone and clever use of colour to take your photography quantum.

THE FINAL COUNTDOWNKuzuno Sekai has been transported to another world where he has the ability to press pause, stopping time itself. However, the timer staring him in the face remains a mystery-when it hits zero, will he return to Earth, or simply die? He's got time to spare to ponder that (and undress freeze-framed young ladies), but the clock is running out for his latest quest: clearing out a dangerous level chock-full of goblins!

Bruce Weber describes this first career-spanning collection of his famed dog photographs as his most personal book.

Dom Pedro II sempre desejou dar a seu país uma perspectiva e uma imagem de progresso, de cultura e de liberdade. Desde jovem almejava esse objetivo, para a concretização do qual se colocou em contato com cientistas, industriais, literatos e sábios do mundo civilizado de sua época. Após trinta anos de bom governo, empreendeu à própria custa, para complementar seus conhecimentos, diversas viagens ao exterior. Uma das nações que mais lhe interessou foi a Alemanha; não, certamente, pelo militarismo que ali vigorava àquele tempo, mas pela vasta gama de inovações técnicas desenvolvidas em diferentes áreas, como a agricultura, e pelas conquistas culturais em geral, que poderiam beneficiar nosso país. A grande imigração germânica para o Brasil também foi por ele apoiada em virtude dos bons resultados desde cedo obtidos. Em D. Pedro II na Alemanha, o leitor encontrará d. Pedro de Alcântara a impressionar grandes sábios europeus com sua vasta erudição e simplicidade de modos. Publicado pelo Senac São Paulo, este livro narra fatos em grande parte inéditos sobre a trajetória de d. Pedro II que, além de importantes como objeto de conhecimento, nos proporcionam, também, ensejo para recordar essa antiga e tradicional amizade entre os dois países, revivida em 2013, com a celebração do ano do Brasil na Alemanha.

"One Day at a Time" is a photojournal by Mei Shen (trail name "Click") about her adventures on the Appalachian Trail on the East Coast of the United States. Her journey started from late March of 2019 and ended in mid-September of the same year. Throughout her 168 days of trail time, she went through harsh snow, torrential rain, and pleasant sun. She experienced the legendary hospitality of the thru-hiking community, walked through the living history of the free spirits of the United States; and affirmed her belief in humanity, documented by stories, poems, and thousands of photos, with over 730 included in this print.

With so many changes occurring and everything we've been through the past year and a half, one might feel the need to re-strategize how to incorporate meaningful experiences into this new life. Face to face interactions might become temporarily limited, making it difficult to go out to the movies, see a play, go to art shows in cramped galleries or go into a store to buy a good book. But that doesn't have to result in giving up what's important. For those who need creativity, all one needs to do is drive around a city and look for the beautifully painted wall canvases of talented street artists. With an eye for beauty and a thriving imagination, a girl can find her super hero in street art.

Charles Sheeler was the poet of the machine age. Photographer of the Ford Motor Company and founder of the painting movement Precisionism, he is remembered as a promoter of - and apologist for - the industrialised capitalist ethic. This book argues that his true relationship to progress was negative, his 'precisionism' both skewed and imprecise.
