Customer Review: A Map Without Any Roads
If I had to sum up this book in one sentence I would describe it as "A map without any roads".
The title is misleading because there is no real "How To" involved in this book. If the author's goal was to say "Hey! Look at my pictures and the setting I used to get them" then he has succeeded. The rest of the books are some sectioned off background information to help the reader to understand the images better.
The reason this book gets a 2 instead of a 1 is because there are some really nice images in the book. I was going to give it a 3 but then I just remembered how the author was breaking his arm patting himself on the back when ever there was an image of his wife & kids involved instead of leaving them anonymous like the other subjects.
As far as teaching, you would receive better information from the person working at the local camera shop.
Customer Review: Understanding Exposure
I purchased this book based on recommendations from a photographic web site, I am on my second reading, it is a must buy for persons who want to know more about why your pictures are the way they are, the good and the bad. With knowledge and understanding, comes the power to improve and perfect your shots. The book is easily read, not too technical, and the photo's provide visual evidence of whats being discussed.
A must buy.
