Photography Outdoors: A Field Guide for Travel & Adventure Photographers Details
Amazon.com Review How many times have you gotten back from a great trip, had those rolls of film developed, and then discovered that what you thought was a fabulous shot of a grazing moose or the Eiffel Tower by moonlight turned out to be less than spectacular? For all you National Geographic hopefuls, this is the book for you. This slim volume packs a world of information between its covers: chapters on composing photographs, the character of light, and how to measure it to determine exposure are followed by ones on camera equipment and how to get the best shots while adventuring and traveling. The book is intended for anyone with a 35 mm camera, from the simplest point-and-shoot variety to the most sophisticated single-lens-reflex model. Best of all, the book is small enough and light enough to take along with you on your travels.

This book is filled with not just instructions on how and why to get great pics, but also has a wealth of tables you'd want to carry with you if you're getting into nature photography.The only thing I would have wished for would have been an index of table / pull out. This way I neededn't carry the book to have the tables with me.(I solved the problem by scanning the tables onto my laptop and printing them on small business card paper. Laminate, put a small hole in corner, hang on same necklace as my Gray/White/Black Card!)I have approximately 13 Nature photography "helps" books. While this one isn't the nicest production, or even the best quality (not even close), it is the most usuable aspiring photographers like me.You won't be disappointed.ps - i got my copy from PowellBooks here on Amazon. Quick Ship / used Tracking / confirmed via email. Excellent transaction... i'd purchase from them again.
