He tells you what you want to know without all the history, un-nesesary, stuff - just right to the point as if he was standing right next to you saying - do this, then this, etc. The best photography book ever! I'm an amateur and this book really helps me. I had just started reading this book and my photography skills already improved. I like that it doesn't get deep in technical terms and it just tells you, as the author says, like in a trip with him, what to do. The photo examples are very useful, especially because underneath it's the EXIF. I'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to become a pro. very hands-on with specific and useful directions easily read in an hour each and afterwards useful as reference, before you go on a specific mission. It is great for beginers It is the best book for a begginer.
It is easy and interesting. I would recomend it to every one. | |
