From Library Journal:
This large-format book offers useful advice on making a variety of nature photographs. Beginning with the basics, including cameras, lenses, light meters, tripods, and other accessories, as well as film, it then offers a valuable section on outfitting oneself for photographing in the field and on exhibiting and publishing photographs. The book's strength, however, is its approach to photographing by locale: separate chapters are devoted to woodlands, grasslands, wetlands, seacoasts, and mountains. Nicely illustrated with 175 color and black-and-white photographs, the book will have wide appeal, primarily among amateur photographers. Some readers may be a little put off by the emphasis on photographing in the British Isles, but there is good advice from an experienced photographer who clearly respects the natural landscape. For libraries with popular photography collections.?Raymond Bial, Parkland Coll. Lib., Champaign, Ill.
