A practical how-to guide to photographing airplanes for anyone from air show enthusiasts to those aspiring to be professional aviation photographers. Mansfield discusses equipment, film, composition, and technique as well as furnishing important information on where to access military, vintage, and commercial aircraft. 100 color photos.
Steve Mansfield-Devine has written all his life, usually for money, often because he just can't help himself. He has been a professional journalist for three decades and his work has appeared in national dailies and magazines of a bewildering variety.
His first novel, Lady Caine, was published by WebVivant Press in 2009. His second, Black Project, appeared in 2011.
These days, his journalism focuses on infosecurity - hacking, malware, cybercrime, network and Internet security. Steve is the editor of two infosecurity journals and a Certified Ethical Hacker.
A qualified pilot, he also spends an abnormal amount of his spare time obsessing about flying, and is the author/photographer of three non-fiction aviation books. Cherry Point and Kaneohe Bay (Osprey/Motorbooks) are photographic portraits of US Marine Corps airbases. Photographing Aeroplanes (Airlife/Motorbooks) is a how-to guide to aviation photography.
