There are 326 million cubic miles of water on earth. That makes for a ton of water photo ops! In this book, author Heather Hummel shows you how to capture condensation on glass, rainbow-producing rain showers, placid swimming pools, and powerful, crashing waves. You will learn how to choose and use the best tools for the job and how to protect your gear from the elements to maximize your image-making opportunities. You’ll learn how to best capture or freeze the motion of water, how to ensure a range of highlight and shadow to show texture, and how to create a feeling of dimension in your photos. You’ll also learn how available light impacts the quality of the capture and how to manipulate existing light — and add artificial light — to ensure a good range of tones and perfect color. With these strategies, you can add a whole new dimension to your outdoor photography.

For the first time of its invention, photography has been used to visualize events that are either too fast or too slow for the eye to perceive, or subjects that are outside the spectral range of the human eye. This book shows how you can photograph a range of subjects and see the world as never before. Written with clear and accessible text, it explores and suggests techniques that expose new images in new ways, and pushes the boundaries of the photographer's creative potential. Techniques include: ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) photography; high speed and time-lapse photography; close-up, macro and photography with the aid of a microscope and finally, photography using polarized light. Most of the techniques are accessible ot all photographers using readily available equipment (UV and IR will require some specialist items), and have been relatively unexplored so give the adventurous photographer great potential to experiment and produce unique images.

Estimates of water withdrawals enable the depiction of trends in total water use for the Nation among different geographic areas, categories of use, and sources over time. Water-use information is a critical component of water budgets, which are essential to surface- water and groundwater availability studies. This information is also essential to accurately understand how future water demands will be met while maintaining adequate water quality and quantities for human and ecosystem needs across the United States of America. Data is represented in text abstracts and analysis, tables, chart graphics, and photos presented throughout. The estimates contained within this volume focus on water use for eight (8) categories: Public Supply * Irrigation Self-supplied Domestic * Livestock Aquaculture * Industrial Mining * Thermoelectric Power Related products: Other products produced by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) are available here: https://bookstore.gpo.gov/agency/us-geological-survey-usgs Check out our Water Management resources collection here: https://bookstore.gpo.gov/catalog/water-management
