This project book is a visual introduction to taking pictures and making things with photographs. Youngsters will learn to master simple photographic techniques, while the text explains the concept behind each activity. Making a pinhole camera helps to explain the principles. They'll be surprised at what results they can produce with a simple compact or disposable camera and special effects filters. Or they can try new ways of mounting and framing existing snaps. The step-by-step instructions are designed to be understood at a glance, while the large-as-life photos of ingredients and finished results show youngsters exactly what they're aiming to achieve.
