"Excellent Landscape Primer" according to Brev00. I try to read all of Rob Sheppard's books. I find him to be a very approachable author. By that, I mean he does not make me feel like I have to spend thousands of dollars to get a decent picture. One of the best parts of this book is the description of his gear. While I often read books and blogs where the author recommends I spend a mint, Rob Sheppard's gear is so humble it really makes photography seem more a product of the photographer than his wallet. He also knows what he is talking about in terms of getting good landscape photographs. This is the first book I have read in this 'Snapshot to Great Shot' ser. A very good book for beginning photographers but of very little value to those over and above this level This book, like those in Peachpit’s “From Snapshots to Great Shots” series, is geared to the beginner. It contains relatively basic information on equipment (i.e., importance of tripod in landscape photography, overviews of types of digital camera and formats, etc.), composition (i.e., rule of two-thirds, etc.), exposure and depth-of-field. Any photographer over and above the beginner would have heard everything mentioned with regard to these a million times over. Thus the book, for anyone over and above the beginner would not find too much value in the book.A few important facts that also nee. I still have a long way to go but this book will get you off to a great start. I am very new to photography and everyone told me that it didn't matter what camera you have if you don't know how to compose a picture. After reading through this book, I spent a week in Colorado. So far, everyone has been impressed with the landscape pictures I got. I can tell a huge difference in the way I look at an area to photograph after reading this book. I still have a long way to go but this book will get you off to a great start.
