My latest #BloggingForBooks selection is John Shaw's Guide To Digital Nature Photography. A complete guide for the photographer seeking technical advice to take the highest quality photographs.
At first glance, beginners will find all the information a bit overwhelming, but don't let it intimidate you. Take the chapters one at a time as you decide on what equipment to purchase. The book is not meant to be read from beginning to end like a novel.
The beautiful color photographs on the book's front cover are only the tip of the iceberg of the author's work. The book features an amazing collection of photographs with one to almost every page. They are an inspiration to take your photography hobby to the next level. And often they are examples of the type of techniques being described in their featured chapter.
Topics covered in this book are things such as composition or close-ups. Those topics are useful for any level of photographer, although they do get a bit too technical at times. The casual point-and-shoot photographer won't have a use for topics like wide angle zooms and horizontal angles. I would recommend this book mostly to those with a serious interest in photography or those who are looking to develop a serious interest.
