An excerpt from the Introduction:
Photographs may appear to be spontaneous, but experienced photographers are working through a three-stage process:
Visualization  →  Field Craft  →  Screen Craft
Visualization is the process of creating in your mind a picture of the finished photograph as you want it to look on the wall.
Field Craft is making use of the Ambient Conditions, Aesthetic Elements and Technical Controls available to you, to re-create your visualization not as a finished photograph, but as a digital negative or on film.
Screen Craft involves breathing life back into the machine image, that digital file or negative, using processing software or in a darkroom. As this book is written in 2026, I’ll concentrate on digital processes.
