I purchased this book when I purchased another book written by Roger Hicks and Frances Schultz for portrait lighting. This book is well illustrated and brings many useful ideas for creating photographic illusionary special effects. It is packed with ideas and will help you expand your visual horizon. The quality of the paper is great and the colors are bright and cheerful. When you have run out of photo ideas or having a dry period, just open this book and start taking pictures again.

Not quite as comprehensive as I would have liked. The images seem a little dated. This book is primarily for beginners or people with limited knowledge of lighting.
