Great practical read on perfecting your lightBy Margaret R.This book is fantastic in may ways: Nick Fancher is a great writer with very direct no-bs-fluff style that makes reading very enjoyable. Information is broken down for easy digest. It made me rethink my approach to what I do with a camera in order to produce rather than capture interesting; innovative and high-quality photographs. Publication is also beautify designed and edited and images and diagrams make it a great tutorial.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
