Customer Review: Yeah, it’s film centric but…
Yeah, it’s film centric but much of the information is great for digital too. If you are a wannabee, hobbiest nature photographer like myself, this is a great read.
All of John Shaw’s books are great. There is some overlap between them as he goes over the basics but they are all worth a read for any aspiring nature photographer.
Customer Review: John Shaw Nature Photography review
I considered this an excellent book. It was written a few years back and had it’s major emphasis on film photography. However, virtually all of the material is applicable for todays state of the art digital photography.
