Photography is changing at the speed of light--and this imaginative manual offers an amazing look at unconventional imaging methods, both digital and analog. Detailed and playful, it presents ideas for repurposing old cameras, making photo devices out of common household items, and creating unique images with today's cameras, mobile phones, software, and other digital technology. From using a TTV cameras lens to panorama and 3D shooting, these techniques will expand any photographer's repertoire!

"It's a tremendous book, John. I so appreciate your talent, intellect, and persistence."
Liese R. - Chicago, Il. USA
"The pages are beautiful, so well designed: large enough type, simple, clear instructions which make the information and techniques non-threatening and the images DO inspire. The HDR is something I hadn't worked with but I will now. I am a film shooter but I see that Neel's ideas can still translate to my medium and are great for my teaching. Thanks for a really useful hands-on book for photogs and photo teachers alike!"
Fred B. Rochester, NY USA
"Thanks for sharing this John, the book is great!"
John S. - Colorado Springs, Co. USA
"This is just a wonderful book. Full of all sorts of innovative and original photographic techniques to explore. It functions in about equal measure as both a detailed manual and an inspirational guide. So, there are shooting techniques described, which involve actually physically modifying your camera or cameras - and expert instructions (and appropriate warnings!) are provided in most of these cases. Plus, tutorial material is provided in other chapters on post-processing explorations… And inter-connections are forged also: some of the images which are postworked come directly from the adapted and "foreign-lens-to-body-combination" cameras. Well done.…"
Walter J. - Upstate NY. USA
"Strap on your seatbelts as Photographer and Digital Imaging Wizard John Neel takes us "behind the curtain" in his laboratory of seemingly mundane gadgets and graft-ons, merging traditional and non-traditional hardware and software to produce wondrous and artistic imagery. Unlike magicians who leave the viewer in a befuddled state of amazement John shares enough theory and technique to make this readily accessible to the everyday Joe who wants to extend his image making horizons. Can photography be any more fun than this?"
