By applying the simple techniques described and then critically evaluating the resulting photos, this book shows photographers how they can expertly capture on film beautiful landscapes, a spectacular sunset, or a close encounter with a rarely seen wild animal. Information is provided on gearing up (cameras and lenses, photo accessories, and film), constructing photos (exposure, composition, and focusing), and working with nature (landscape photography, close-up photography, and wildlife photography).

This review is from: Beginner's Guide to Nature Photography (Paperback)
This is a book to open the eye's of a beginner. The book lacks so much. There is very little how to or what to or what to use. I've learned more from one (1) chapter of other books then I did from cover to cover of this one. Very, very poor!

This review is from: Beginner's Guide to Nature Photography (Paperback)
After reviewing it myself, I gave this book as a gift to a friend. He has always been a casual shooter, but in his retirement was looking to get out and do more nature photography. He found that the book gave him some great ideas and definitely pointed him in the right direction. He also mentioned liking the conversational style of the writing and that he found the images inspiring because they weren't all shots of exotic locales he'd probably never have a chance to shoot. If this sounds like you, you'll probably enjoy this book.
