2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A good learning guide.By James T. YehI am an amateur photographer and find this guide useful. The writing flows well and is easy to read and easy to follow. Mr. Arbabi used ample examples to articulate the key techniques. Given that I am not a novice. sometimes I found what he described confirmed my understanding. which gives me more confidence of how I may apply the approach. But I also find something I did not know or master before. Mr. Arbabi did not use much (although some) of the dramatic scenes of landscape which can only be gotten by trekking days. reaching high altitudes or freezing the wits. Instead. most people are able or possible to realize what described with some commitment and attention. The print quality is excellent. I find the print color is very natural. unlike some other books in which the colors are too much enhanced and not real. Each picture has a description of the camera/lens parameters as well as the thinking or strategy behind it.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.

I need enlightenment in both the technical aspects as well as the "artsy" aspects of photography. This book fits the bill for me. an avid outdoorsman. I am half way through this wonderful book. have already learned a lot that will instantly help me with my photography. and I plan to study and reread this book many times to soak up the knowledge it contains. This book has great photographic examples of the techniques being discussed. is well written and easy to read. I strongly recommend it.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great for me. a beginner.By Joshua D. StevensonI am not finished with this book yet but it has been very helpful on all fronts. The author writes on a level thats easy to understand and he comes from a practical approach thats easy for a beginner like me to follow. There are "assignments" after each chapter that slowly become more advanced. He does a good job of explaining concepts while not being too dogmatic or strict about rules. He does a good job of providing the information in a way that is useful to me even though I dont have a ton of equipment. The example pictures throughout illustrate what he is teaching in that chapter. Overall Im glad I purchased this and would reccomend it to those like myself who dont have a ton of time or money to sink into a photography habit but want to know how to take good shots now and then.
