Photography Wisdom for iPad

Photography Wisdom for iPad™ Now Available on the App Store

The Photography Wisdom book, written by Wayne J. Cosshall, is now available for iPad from the App Store.

The App provides all the content of the book, but as an App with an interactive Table of Contents. It also has very convenient brightness controls that allow you to really dim the body of the App for convenience when reading in bed, something we love to do, so we wanted to make it easy for others. Font size can be changed to suit every reader and the App handles all orientations of the iPad, resizing images and changing the layout to make best use of the space. Left and right flicks take you from page to page and a push scrolls vertically.

Whatever your experience in photography, Photography Wisdom will help you to make your images better by giving you new tools, insights and ways of thinking about your photography. Fifty great tips and extensive illustrations guide you through a process of loosing up, being more creative and taking better photos.

Wayne J. Cosshall, renowned author and educator about photography, brings his 35+ years of photography experience to you in a fun, thought provoking App that challenges you to take better photos.

Photography Wisdom came about from my desire to take a series of tips for better photography I have been publishing on www.dimagemaker.com, expand on them and publish them in book form. Some people like and use online resources but others do not, and it seemed a shame to miss out on reaching such people. You can now choose between the printed book and App forms.

The brightness control lets you make the content VERY dark for reading at night with no lighting

The tips come from my 35+ years of photography experience, from my passions of landscape, macro, collage and infrared photography to portraits, weddings, product shots and the odd bit of fashion. They also draw from my varied other interests and activities: helping people overcome creative blocks, teaching photography, art and computers at all levels of adult education, a passion for science, philosophy, spirituality and history, and much more. I find it constantly amazing that interests in one area will often yield insights in a completely different field.

Photography Wisdom is designed to be used in many ways. You can read it through sequentially, dive into it at random or go find the specific tip relevant to whatever you are dealing with at the time.

The Photography Wisdom for iPad Support Page can be used to submit problems, suggestions and general comments.

The book form of Photography Wisdom is a 180 page, 10″ x 8″ book.
