Originally posted by Naturenut Agreed! This book is fantastic. Really, really helped me wrap my head around everything. I've only been at this for about 8 months and beside my camera, UE is the best investment I've made in my learning about photography.
I would agree very strongly about this book.
Also, by the same author "
Understanding Shutter Speed" and "
Learning to see Creatively". Once you've digested these books you will know at least what you
can do with a camera,
how you can do it and also
why you should learn to use this knowledge.
Learn to walk before you try to run and if you want to produce quality results there is, like most other skills, no real short cuts and no 'quick read' that will explain everything.
