Ammonite Landscape Photography Workshop, The

This is a GREAT photography book. If you want to kick your Landscape Photography through the roof, this is the book you need.

Good read

Great book to build your base of information on and then take it from there.

I've been serious about digital photography for two years now, working manually, and trying to learn by taking thousands of photos. I have over thirty excellent books on photography on my shelves, but my knowledge of photographic techniques is still very patchy because so many authors assume too much knowledge on the part of the reader and I simply don't understand what they're talking about much of the time. I need to know how and why things work; not just which combination of buttons to press.For instance, I've read so many books and web pages trying to understand hyperfocal distance without result in the past, but the authors of this book managed to explain it so succinctly and so clearly that I was left wondering how other writers could make it seem so complicated.This book covers so much that I previously only half-understood and is filling in all the gaps in my knowledge. I know that this is going to help me take much better landscape photos because I'll know so much more about what I'm doing when I next stand behind a camera.I will be recommending this book to friends starting out with landscape photography as the very first thing they should read. The photographs are inspiring and the entire book is motivating for beginners and more experienced photographers alike.I'm off now to look at more books by these authors. I can't go on the workshops, so I'm very grateful that these books exist.

Bought this as a gift for my daughter in law. She is delighted with it and is learning a great a great deal already.
