Subject: Publication on digital photography for art conservation
I just wanted to let you know about the release of the 4th edition (January 2015) of Yosi Poseilov's popular handbook, "Digital Photography for Art Conservation" for the Art Conservation community. Yosi is the staff photographer for LACMA and has trained many of us over the years in his excellent workshops. The 4th edition is the largest most comprehensive revision to date. The Handbook is double the size of the previous, rich in images providing a strong foundation for the beginner digital photographer. It also offers the experienced photographer more sophisticated color management techniques (using Adobe's software) that professionals in this field require. New additions include sections on Conservation Imaging Techniques, aspects of multispectral imaging, including a review of a number of different light sources. Also offered is a procedure for condition reporting using the iPad. A suggested list and procedure for naming conventions can be found in the appendix, as well as an expanded and very comprehensive glossary. Please write to yosi<-at->pozeilov<.>com, to get a copy of the index. To purchase a copy of the book search for Yosi Pozeilov on Lulu.com Shelley M.
