When I started to learn photography as a teenager in the early 70’s, there was only one way where I lived - read books and educate yourself.
One of the most influential books was ‘Die neue Foto-Lehre’ by Andreas Feininger.
It shaped my seeing and approach to photography and taught me many of the basic principles.
I’m very grateful to Andreas Feininger for sharing his insights.

Another important book was Günter Spitzing´s Blitzbuch, from which I learned the principles of flash technique. Which was all manual and even with flash bulbs on film. All these principles still apply today with modern flash technique. Light is still light and behaves as in the 70’s.
