Though I have not completed this book completely I can assure you that this is some great reading material for the novice. semi-pro. and professional photographer. There is countless information in regard to actual photo shooting. preparation. and final drafts of photographs. I am 95% through the book. but in the first 10 pages I already knew that this reading was going to be a great value to me and others in the photography world.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
