This review is from: Camera Angles: Tips and Techniques for Professional-Quality Photographs (Paperback)

If you are interested in learning the art of PHOTOGRAPHY, and wanting to produce better images from whatever camera you have, then this book is for you.

I personally recommend this book to any new photographer looking to create better images, and even to semi-pro photographers who aren't sure how to elevate themselves to the next level.

While the book is written back in the days of "film", to be quite honest I can't remember the last time I actually took an image on a film camera - but I still use the techniques in this book all the time. It's written back in the day where people didn't have the ability to just shoot and check, shoot and check, shoot and check if the photos look good. This book was written to help those people to create professional looking images. This book really gets into the "WHY" of photography and why you would capture an image at a given angle versus any other possible angle.

It's cheap - buy it - read it - You'll be GLAD you did. (and if you are like me, you'll buy another copy to share with friends who want to learn how to create as cool of photographs as you make!)
