 A book that delves beyond the obvious. March 17, 2008
Rocky Nook consistently offers books that provide thoughtful insights and techniques by articulate experts who are objective in their recommendations. I have been a photographer for 40 years, a professional photographer for 30 years and a digital photographer for 10; Fine Art Printing has been a practical guide to improving my digital printing. I own several Rocky Nook titles and find them all to be books that are useful to professionals.
 A Basis for learning what is involved in fine art photographic printing November 16, 2007

Concise information regarding the process of creating a fine art print. Well written and informative. I Wish there was more in depth information available on creating ICC profiles for printers, how to create them, how to fine tune them, and how to test them.

I've always struggled to produce prints that match what I see on the screen. This is th best book I've ever read on the subject. It covers everything in great detail, and is very readable. For the first time, I'm able to produce prints that match what I'm seeing on the screen.
A Very High Quality Publication July 8, 2007

Producing exhibition quality photographic prints on an ink-jet printer requires a knowledge of many areas - printers, papers, inks, color management, editing software, handling and preservation. This outstanding book covers all these topics with the authority of experts. The authors' in-depth knowledge enables them to distill the essence of each topic into very concise prose, which is a pleasure on both the first reading and for subsequent reference. I have tried using other books on producing exhibition quality prints and found them wanting. With this book, I have quickly taken my prints to a new level.
As a minor issue, there are a number of places where a good editor could have tightened up the prose, added a clarifying sentence, or removed a germanic grammatical construction. Maybe for the next edition the authors could engage a more discerning editor. However, this does not affect the book's overall clarity.
One of the pleasures of this book is its design, with beautiful examples of the authors' own work, and a very extensive list of references for further information.
