Teacher, philosopher, and author Guy Tal has written several best-selling books on photography, creativity, and expression. While it would be understandable to label Guy a 'photographer,' it is more accurate to call him a philosopher and artist who has forged a creative life on his own terms: a life shaped by his love of nature, his interest in science and philosophy, his individualistic temperament, and his desire to create art that is expressive and significant in the ways most meaningful to him. In Be Extraordinary: Philosophical Advice for Photographic and Other Artists, Guy shares his knowledge of philosophy and art, then offers advice on how to implement it into your own work. In the first part, 'Foundations,' Guy lays out a conceptual framework for the book with short essays about philosophy and art. In the second part, 'Practical Advice,' he offers a series of brief essays aiming to enable and empower you to apply the foundational philosophies to your own life and work. Togethe
