De seneste år er digital farvelægning af gamle fotografier blevet en populær måde at bringe fortiden til live. Det er blevet muligt at farvelægge gamle billeder i så god en kvalitet, at det næsten er blevet svært at kende forskel på et nyt farvefoto og så et farvelagt sort-hvid fotografi. Billederne får et helt nyt liv – og mange af dem ser ud som om de næsten er taget i går.Forfatteren Arne Kjær Hansen er en af dem, der har brugt teknikken. Han har fundet 55 billeder frem fra det gamle Aarhus og farvelagt dem efter de farver, der blev brugt, da billedet blev taget. Der findes billeder fra sidst i 1800-tallet til 1930’erne.Datidens gader og de mennesker, der befolkede dem, kommer pludselig tæt på, når man sidder og betragter Arne Kjær Hansens værker. Hvert enkelt foto er forklaret med en tekst forfattet af historiker Jørgen Mührmann Lund.

Kunstmaleren Erik A. Frandsen begav sig i 2014 sammen med vennen og forfatteren Thomas Boberg ud på en vandring fra Schweiz til Italien, fra Gran San Bernardo i nord til Rom i syd, en tur på i alt 35 dage og 1.050 km, i sol og regn, vindstille og orkan. Der var ikke planlagt noget kunstnerisk projekt på turen; men Erik A. Frandsen fotograferede undervejs, og han begyndte at tegne, med pen og tusch, en disciplin, Frandsen aldrig tidligere har dyrket. Tegningerne blev til i små hæfter, tegnede landskaber, byer, træer, floder, huse, gader, torve, marker, i en hurtig, på én gang præcis og ekspressiv streg, der indfangede både steder og stemninger og fastholdt dem i en overrumplende umiddelbarhed og friskhed.Erik A. Frandsens tegninger og fotografier fra vandreturen kan nu oplevelse i kunstbogen VIA FRANCIGENA, der er med efterord af Thomas Boberg.

”Den bedste fotograf, du aldrig har hørt om”, skrev det britiske magasin Creative Review i 2007 om Keld Helmer-Petersen (1920-2013). Han var den første dansker, der for alvor arbejdede med kameraet som kunstnerisk redskab til at skabe fotografier, der skulle beundres for deres æstetiske og grafiske kvaliteter. Han omsatte sine iagttagelser af den moderne verden til iøjnefaldende, nytænkende billeder. Da han som 28-årig udgav den banebrydende 122 Farvefotografier (1948) vakte det opsigt verden over, og et uddrag blev bragt i det amerikanske LIFE magazine. Bogen blev Keld Helmer-Petersens visitkort til fotografiets førende land, som efter Anden Verdenskrig, var USA.Keld Helmer-Petersen – Photographs 1941-2013giver et retrospektivt blik på fotografen Keld Helmer-Petersens imponerende karriere, der strakte sig over syv årtier. Keld Helmer-Petersen fotograferede den moderne verdens arkitektur, industri og strukturer – fra de største former til de mest undseelige detaljer. Tilsammen bliver hans billeder et slags visuelt opslagsværk over en æra. Keld Helmer-Petersen havde et særligt blik for den skjulte skønhed og værdi, som ligger i den verden, vi ellers troede vi kendte.Keld Helmer-Petersen eksperimenterede livet igennem med fotografiets grænser. Han samarbejdede med en lang række arkitekter, billedkunstnere og forfattere – og dyrkede fotografiet i grænsefeltet mellem maleri, grafik, arkitektur og design. Dog formåede han livet igennem at fastholde en tydelig visuelle identitet. Bogen demonstrerer, hvordan hans værker er enestående, både i en dansk og en international kontekst.Keld Helmer-Petersen er repræsenteret i samlinger i både Danmark og udlandet, bl.a. andet Museum of Modern Art (New York), Museum Folkvang (Essen), Moderna Museet (Stockholm), Brandts (Odense), Statens Kunstfond og en serie af hans værker udsmykker togstationen i Københavns Lufthavn. Fra den 14. juni 2019 og frem til den 18. januar 2020 kan Helmer-Petersens værker opleves på udstillingen Finding Beauty i Den Sorte Diamant.Bogen indeholder en introduktion af Mette Sandbye, professor og institutleder ved Institut for Kunst- og Kulturvidenskab, et essay skrevet af tidligere leder af Museet for Fotokunst i Odense, Finn Thrane. Hvert kapitel introduceres kort af fotografen selv, og hans nære ven og kollega fotograf, Jens Frederiksen, der har bidraget med teksten Black Noise. Afslutningsvis bringes et interview med Keld Helmer-Petersen af den verdenskendte engelske fotograf Martin Parr.Keld Helmer-Petersen – Photographs 1941-2013er en ny, opdateret og revideret udgave af Keld Helmer-Petersen – Photographs 1941-1995, der udkom i 2007.

When photographing people, you can have a great composition, perfect light, and the right camera settings, but if your subject doesn't look right-if the pose is off-the shot will not be a keeper. Posing is truly a crucial skill that photographers need to have in order to create great photographs. If you're looking to improve your ability to pose your subjects-whether they're men, women, couples, or groups-best-selling author and photographer Lindsay Adler's The Photographer's Guide to Posing: Techniques to Flatter Everyone is the perfect resource for you.In the first half of The Photographer's Guide to Posing, Lindsay discusses how the camera sees, and thus how camera angle, lens choice, and perspective all affect the appearance of your subject. Lindsay then covers the five most important things that ruin a pose-such as placement of the hands, and your subject's expression and posture. If you can look out for and avoid these five things, your skills (and your images) will quickly improve. Next, Lindsay dives into "e;posing essentials,"e; outlining her approach to start with a "e;base pose,"e; then build on that to create endless posing opportunities. She also discusses posing the face-with specific sections dedicated to the chin, jaw, eyes, and forehead-as well as posing hands.In the second half of the book, Lindsay dedicates entire chapters to posing specific subject matter: women, men, couples, curvy women, families and small groups, and large groups. In each chapter, Lindsay addresses that subject matter's specific challenges, provides five "e;go-to poses"e; you can always use, and covers how to train the eye to determine the best pose for your subject(s). In the final chapter of the book, Lindsay brings it all together as she teaches you how to analyze a pose so that you can create endless posing opportunities and continuously improve your work

Susan Sontag's On Photography is a seminal and groundbreaking work on the subject.Susan Sontag's groundbreaking critique of photography asks forceful questions about the moral and aesthetic issues surrounding this art form. Photographs are everywhere, and the 'insatiability of the photographing eye' has profoundly altered our relationship with the world. Photographs have the power to shock, idealize or seduce, they create a sense of nostalgia and act as a memorial, and they can be used as evidence against us or to identify us. In these six incisive essays, Sontag examines the ways in which we use these omnipresent images to manufacture a sense of reality and authority in our lives.'Sontag offers enough food for thought to satisfy the most intellectual of appetites'The Times'A brilliant analysis of the profound changes photographic images have made in our way of looking at the world, and at ourselves'Washington Post'The most original and illuminating study of the subject'New YorkerOne of America's best-known and most admired writers, Susan Sontag was also a leading commentator on contemporary culture until her death in December 2004. Her books include four novels and numerous works of non-fiction, among them Regarding the Pain of Others, On Photography, Illness as Metaphor, At the Same Time, Against Interpretation and Other Essays and Reborn: Early Diaries 1947-1963, all of which are published by Penguin. A further eight books, including the collections of essays Under the Sign of Saturn and Where the Stress Falls, and the novels The Volcano Lover and The Benefactor, are available from Penguin Modern Classics.
