Rocky Nook publishers present, Remote Exposure: A Guide to Hiking and Climbing Photography. Written by French climber/photographer Alexandre Buisse, Remote Exposure is an exciting look at the world of extreme photography. Buisse provides the reader with the basics, as well as a more advanced look at the tools and techniques needed to capture successful and stunning photography while hiking or climbing.

Using his own experience and images, the author guides you, the reader, through options for equipment and how to be efficient without comprising the need for lightweight gear while climbing. Advice on where to point the camera, digital capture, and high dynamic range imaging are just a few of the nuggets of wisdom that Buisse shares with his readers. In addition, he has filled the book with over 100 of his own breath-taking images.

About the Author
Alexandre Buisse was born in Lyon, France. Growing up there meant frequent trips to the Alps, often to the Chamonix valley, which planted the seeds for his love of the mountains. Ironically, it wasn't until he moved to flat Scandinavia that, pushed by a friend, he took up climbing. He has since traveled and climbed on four continents and in most major world ranges

Alexandre began taking a serious interest in photography in 2005 - just in time for his 20th birthday - and hasn't put his camera down ever since. His initial motivation was to record and share the wonderful views that he encountered while hiking in the French Alps and, later, on his mountaineering expeditions. Though he also shoots in urban environments, his heart decidedly lies with nature and adventure photography

He currently lives in Denmark, where he is switching careers from academic research to full-time adventure photography; he plans to move back to France soon
