These topics cover the basic problems faced in taking a photograph. By exploring them in orderly fashion this book shows how the technical objectives of a \"good\" negative can be combined with the aesthetic aims of an outstanding picture."}, "latest_revision": 8, "revision": 8, "created": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2009-12-10T18:10:24.165478"}, "last_modified": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2025-05-06T22:12:46.534996"}}
