A longtime mountaineer and wilderness traveler, James Martin is uniquely suited to show us how to make the most of digital photography's advantages for outdoor photography. In Digital Photography Outdoors, Martin presents the new rules of digital photography and reminds us of old rules that still apply. He covers the fundamentals of digital editing, including selecting software tools, applying filters, creating illusion of movement, and stitching photos together to create panoramas. James Martin has written for Outdoor Photographer, Sports Illustrated, and Audubon Magazine and he has seventeen books to his credit, most illustrated with his own photos. Martin is based in Seattle but he spends most of his time traveling and photographing. He is represented by Getty Images.
