Customer Reviews

I look at this book, and I wonder ...
I wonder if I am ready for this sort of "master class". The photographs inside are almost intimidating in their beauty and artistry.

I have years of experience with attempting to create photos like these, and I will say that the patience of the artists is well-displayed in the photographs.

I found the text to be informative and thought-provoking, and although I am a little intimidated, I am also greatly inspired by the detail and instruction given.

Inspiring Photography and Instruction
As a previous reviewer mentioned, it's intimidating to see such incredible photography, especially if you're an aspiring photographer (as I am).

However, I find the beauty of the photography here to be inspirational, and the critiques provided are very informative. I highly recommend reading this book if you're an aspiring nature photographer.

It's an OK book
I don't like the way the book is set up. The photos are great to try to emulate. But the critiques of the photos are all grouped in a different section. I find it easier to be looking at the photo and then read the critique next to the photo rather than in a different part of the book. Although there are 1 in. by 1 in. photos by the critique. To really get the jist of it all I kept having to refer to the larger photo which as I said is in a different part of the book.
Great photos to look at though.
