  When Ansel Adams exposed a photographic plate or piece of
  film, he thought about the light, perspective, exposure and
  so on. He would often manipulate the development process to
  maximize the dynamic range of his negatives. Printing the
  negative was an exercise in photo-manipulation mostly
  through dodging and burning.

Photojournalism

PHOTO ASSIGNMENT - TELL A STORY WITH YOUR IMAGES Photojournalism aims to present the facts, to provide a picture of reality, to inform. Capture an image or a sequence of images that tells a story. Perhaps something in your neighborhood or community. You want the image(s) to hold the viewer's attention and have an impact.

Book Recommendation (advanced) Bela Julesz Foundations of Cyclopean Perception The MIT Press; 1 edition (March 31, 2006) ISBN-10: 0262101130 ISBN-13: 978-0262101134 This classic work on cyclopean perception has influenced a generation of vision researchers, cognitive scientists, and neuroscientists and has inspired artists, designers, and computer graphics pioneers. In Foundations of Cyclopean Perception (first published in 1971 and unavailable for years), Bela Julesz traced the visual information flow in the brain, analyzing how the brain combines separate images received from the two eyes to produce depth perception. Stereo pairs consists of two images, one from the perspective of the left eye and one for the right eye. Even though the two pictures may look very similar, they are not identical. During viewing, the left eye sees the left image and the right eye the right; then the brain fuses the two so you perceive depth. Cross your eyes until you see a middle third image.
