Grade 7 Up—This title explores the continually expanding world of digital photography and its many career opportunities. Chapter one looks at the advantages of the technology and its history, the range of cameras, and the various online photo-sharing sites. Successive chapters discuss the impact of digital photography on the field of journalism, the use of photo software, dealing with deadlines and basic photography rules, freelance work, setting goals, the various Web sites to display photos, building a portfolio, and organizing one's work. Throughout, additional inserts labeled "A Closer Look," "Quick Tips," "Tech Tools," and "Check It Out" list relevant resources (mainly Web sites), and copious color photos, screen shots, and a few sidebars provide additional information. A list of professional organizations is also included.—Susan Shaver, Hemingford Public Schools, NE
