    Good book-Great tips!

    I bought a good little book yesterday – ‘thats nice’, you say!

    I like it because its not one of those photography books that craps on about the industry, and how the author made his millions shooting 3rd world countries and the poor people living in them. Its a book that dives straight into useful real-world amateur/hobbyist tips and tricks. Its tips from start to finish

    I would recommend anyone into photography to take a look at this book. $29=cheap

    I haven’t finished reading it yet, but here are some of my favourite tips so far:

    Getting "Tack Sharp" Starts with a Tripod

    Don't Shoot Down on Flowers

    The Best Shot May Be Just Three Feet Away

    Don't Wait for Rain Fake it!

    Really though, I think these tips are catchy

    Anyways thats it, check it out


    The Digital Photography Book: The Step-By-Step Secrets for How to Make Your Photos Look Like the Pros'!

    I might have a flick through this one and see what its like, Cheers sans2012

    But if this is the author I'm thinking of, I once read one of his Photoshop books.. wasn't too impressed with his style of writting, didn't explain why he did anything just told what button to press and what value to put in.
    Cheers,
    Scott
