  Maximize the use of your iPhone 12 to take great shots 
  A Complete Guide to Using the iPhone 12 Pro Camera 
  The best camera for the job is the one you have in your hands when there is an opportunity for a photoshoot, especially when that camera is the iPhone 12 Pro. The question then becomes, are you making the most of that powerful tool in your pocket? Do the photos you take seem to be from an amateur because of how blurry they look, and very different from the kind of picture you had in mind to take? If this is you and you want to be able to take incredible pictures with your iPhone, then this book is for you. 
  At the end of this book, you should be comfortable taking great shots with your iPhone 12 Pro even in low light conditions. You will also be equipped with the skills needed to capture awesome portrait pictures of people and nail down your composition such that others can be amazed at how professional your pictures consistently look, as you create jaw-dropping landscapes, food, and travel photos of the events you are involved in. 
  The book starts by covering some of the basic things about the iPhone 12 Pro and the relevance of some of these features on the iPhone and how they affect the quality of the pictures taken with it. In no time after you start using this book, you will begin to start snapping with your camera with far more confidence and dexterity than others who simply go through the motions of pointing their cameras at an object and taking pictures without some of these basic knowledge and skills. 
  With this book in your hands, you can move from being just a mediocre basic iPhone user to an iPhone photography specialist. It will save you the time and energy of stumbling into some of these features by deliberately exposing you to these features and functions.

  Art History Art in ancient Rome

  Centred in the city of Rome, the civilization of Ancient Rome ruled much of Europe for over 1000 years. The diverse phases of Roman art correspond to as many phases in the spiritual and political life of the Roman people. It has its origin in the national character and circumstances of the Romans. The ideal in matters of taste in ancient Rome was only derived by them from the gods through the medium of another nation. Their own notion of the highest of all things, their summum bonum, was not the beautiful, but the powerful. And this they thought they had as a nation received from heaven. In order to fully to appreciate Rome's contribution to the art of the West, we need to understand how upon the old Latin stock were grafted shoots brought in turn from Etruria, from Greece, from the great Hellenistic cities of Asia and of Africa. And if these foreign growths threatened at times, as towards the end of the Republic, to absorb the vital sap of the original tree, yet the Roman type recovered itself under the Empire and gradually reached its full and independent development.

  Theatre in Scotland - A Field of...

  'She has, to my knowledge, an almost unblemished record in never having failed to spot a great new play…' Philip Howard, from his Foreword
  Joyce McMillan has been writing about theatre in Scotland for more than three decades. As drama critic successively for The Guardian, Scotland on Sunday and The Scotsman, she has reviewed thousands of plays. During that time she has borne witness to an extraordinary cultural and political renaissance in Scotland, reflected in the newfound confidence of its playwrights, in the vibrancy of its theatre culture and in its recent outburst of new theatre companies.
  Compiled by McMillan and the theatre director, Philip Howard, Theatre in Scotland is a panoramic history of modern Scottish theatre, reported from the frontline. It traces the remarkable journey of Scottish theatre towards its new self-confidence: the road to 1990, when Glasgow was European Capital of Culture; followed by the explosive expansion of the 1990s; culminating in the emergence of the National Theatre of Scotland and its drive to bring theatre culture right into the heart of the nation.
  Gathered here are the leading Scottish playwrights, from John Byrne to Liz Lochhead, from David Greig to David Harrower, as well as the full breadth of English playwrights, from Shakespeare to Pinter. There are reflections on the great Scottish plays, classic – Ane Satyre of the Thrie Estaitis, Men Should Weep – and modern – Black Watch, The James Plays. There are reports not only from the urban theatre centres of Edinburgh and Glasgow but from all over Scotland; and from the feast that is the Edinburgh Festival, to the nourishing A Play, A Pie and A Pint.
  A leading thinker and writer about Scotland, McMillan has an incomparable ability to detect the wider cultural resonances in Scottish theatre, and to reveal what it can tell us about Scotland as a whole. Her book serves as a portrait of a nation and a shared cultural life, where visions of 'what we have been, what we are, and what we might become' are played out in sharp focus on its stages.
  'When Scottish theatre works [its] magic over the coming years, I will be there, to try to catch the moment in print, and to tell it as it was. And believe me, on the good nights and the bad ones, the privilege will be mine: to be paid to go looking for joy, and occasionally to find it.' Joyce McMillan
