KLR said One of the Best Photography Books I've Read. I am a beginner in photography and have only been studying the art for about a year now. I've read several books recently and find this one by far the best out of all of them. It's been very informative and helpful and the topics are wide-ranging on how to improve your photography. Each lesson is short, simple and easy to remember. I'd highly recommend this book to others.. "Helpful and beautifully done" according to Emerson. I've been photographing events, sports, weddings, portraits, lansdcapes, macro, since the 60's. Even taught photography and darkroom for over a decade. This would have been a great book to have had Helpful and beautifully done Emerson I've been photographing events, sports, weddings, portraits, lansdcapes, macro, since the 60's. Even taught photography and darkroom for over a decade. This would have been a great book to have had 45 years ago. Very practical. Many of the insights and lessons here I learned through the years and used teaching. This helps the photographer rethink the mundane.. 5 years ago. Very practical.
