 Not Inspirational At All ! January 10, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
There are only a few photos in this book that I would consider "inspirational" - most are so-so photographs enhanced only
by PhotoShop. I was expecting dynamic photography with great step-by-step tips and all I got was the same photographers that Rangefinder prints all of the time. I don't know how these photographers get into this magazine - they must advertise somehow. Fuzzy Duenkel was one of the few true talents of the book and they hardly showcased his true work. I would spend your money elsewhere.
 All are highly recommended picks November 7, 2006

Bill Huter edits RANGEFINDER'S PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY: TECHNIQUES AND IMAGES FROM THE PAGES OF RANGEFINDER MAGAZINE, which gathers the inside secrets of some of the top photographers - some one hundred - who have created successful professional images. Even the amateur can learn from masters who manipulate lighting, props, and image settings for maximum results, and chapters packed with eye-catching color displays cover not just the art of setting up the shot, but the 'new darkroom' techniques of Photoshop to manipulate the results. All are highly recommended picks deserving places on shelves ranging from college-level photography collections to public library settings.
