He explains how to take photos of the Milky Way, northern lights, meteors, eclipses, lightning, and much more. Grant begins by reviewing equipment and supplies that are helpful when shooting at night. He then discusses many software programs, web sites, and mobile apps that will help you plan your shots. Finally, he offers extensive advice on how to capture and process images at night.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 220-221) and index.Tradition -- Sources of light -- Light and form -- Elements of color -- Paint and pigments -- Color relationships -- Premixing -- Visual perception -- Surfaces and effects -- Atmospheric effects -- Light's changing show -- Resources."James Gurney, New York Times best-selling author and artist of the Dinotopia series, follows Imaginative Realism with his second art-instruction book, Color and Light: A Guide for the Realist Painter. A researched study on two of art's most fundamental themes, Color and Light bridges the gap between abstract theory and practical knowledge. Beginning with a survey of underappreciated masters who perfected the use of color and light, the book examines how light reveals form, the properties of color and pigments, and the wide variety of atmospheric effects. Gurney cuts though the confusing and contradictory dogma about color, testing it in the light of science and observation. A glossary, pigment index, and bibliography complete what will ultimately become an indispensable tool for art students and artists on any level." --
