 Very nice but... March 30, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Pros: The pictures are organized by season, the author explein very wall conditions and tips on taking pictures in his travel.
Cons:
- The author uses my grandfather camera. All showed settings on pictures are useless for amateurs with digital SRL.
- The author has taken most of the pictures on north England and Scotland. So it focuses on specific region weather tips.
 Wonderful pictures, excellent prose March 27, 2006

U.K. photographer Peter Watson goes over British/Scottish/Welsh landscape photographic opportunities throughout each month. His pictures are extraordinary, many with phenomenal skies. That's one of his keys and you can tell he has a great deal of patience (and, apparently, a flexible schedule) to be in the right place at the right time.
As a photographer, I found his explanations behind each picture excellent -- detailed, yet still fascinating to anyone with any sort of interest in the artistic process of photography. But those pictures! They'll keep you coming back to Light in the Landscape time and time again.
As it's apparently not available here, try ordering it through amazon.uk.
