A LITTLE SHORT

HERE'S A BOOK THAT MIGHT HELP WITH COMPOSITION. HOWEVER, THE NUTS AND BOLTS (F-STOP, SHUTTER SPEED, LENS, FILM USED) GETS
LITTLE ATTENTION.
EXPOSURE IS CRITICAL TO PHOTOGRAPHY. GOOD CAMERAS LENSES AND THE RIGHT FILM ALL PLAY IMPORTANT PARTS IN GETTING GREAT PICTURES.

"UNDERSTANDING EXPOSURE" BY BRYAN PETERSON WILL HELP YOU TAKE BETTER PICTURES. COMPOSITION IS LEARNED WITH PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. HOLD YOUR FINGERS UP IN A RECTANGLE POSITION AND LOOK THROUGH THEM FOR A "PREVIEW" OF A SCENE. MAKE BETTER USE OF YOUR VIEW FINDER TOO. GOOD PICTURES ARE A COMBINATION OF GOOD EQUIPMENT, FILM, LENS, EXPOSURE AND COMPOSITION.

John Hedgecoe's Photography Basic book is packed with over 150 pages of great tips on photography.
I find this book to be one of the best books on photography out on the market today. It is easy to understand, covers most topics and is full with hundreds of color photographs.
John gives expert advice and tips so you will get up and shooting better photos in no time. If you are looking to learn photography this is the book for you.

It helped me take better photographs

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2000

I bought this book a month back. From the day I bought this book till now, I have seen a marked improvement in the photographs I take. I did not know much about photography and now I am able to look for details in a photograph and am able to judge on how it could have been improved. I cannot claim to have mastered the art of photography but I am certainly thinking now before I go about taking a picture. Another thing that was cool about this book is that it was well laid out and joe had explained the techniques in a very crisp fashion(unlike in otherbooks where you find a lot of text that really puts off even a determined learner).

Not bad - but not great

Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2002

Got the book and I can use some of the techniques, but I knd of already knew them. The pictures are great in this book, but they all seem to be from the eraly 80s or from Russia. I wouldn't get this book again unless I checked it out at the library.
