Stopping Time the Photographs of Harold Edgerton
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Harry N Abrams Inc
- Publish date: 10/01/2000
Description:
A bullet seen the instant it explodes through an apple ... a milk-drop splash transformed into a perfect coronet ... a golf swing shown in a procession of exposures taken milliseconds apart -- some of the world's most famous photographs were taken by Harold Edgerton, the late MIT scientist who invented the electronic flash. This great classic, first published in 1987 and now back in print in paperback, celebrates Edgerton's genius and his lasting influence on photography.
Expand description
More than 125 superbly reproduced plates illustrate the phenomenal range of his work, and Edgerton himself describes his efforts to capture the world in microseconds. Prizewinning author and photography historian Estelle Jussim discusses his profound legacy, and commentaries accompanying each plate explain the techniques used to create these exceptional images.
