Urban exploration photography

Urban exploration photography - sometimes called 'urbex' - is a unique photographic genre that requires specific skills in order to produce compelling photographs. In this book, Todd Sipes walks the reader through everything they need to know about composing, shooting, and processing photos of abandoned, man-made structures. Sipes begins with a focused discussion on preparation for this unique genre of photography, including what to bring, both photography-related and other (such as clothes and accessories). Then he dives into the chapters on shooting, where he covers the role that composition plays in urban exploration photography; the three major shooting styles or uban exploration photography; general guidelines for camera settings and gear; why you should bracket your shots; and how to approach shooting in the dark (including light painting, using flashes and gels, and using an intervalometer).
