Full of ideas to take your photography to the next level October 1, 1998 41 out of 44 found this review helpful
Of the many books that purport to add compositional and other creative skills to your arsenal of photographic tools, this is the only one I have read that really delivers. Perhaps the most useful aspect of this book is that it shows how, by making one or two changes (camera angle, lens selection, time of day, etc.) the author took what would been a snapshot to a magazine cover or poster quality photo. In most cases, there are "before and after" photos for comparison, and there is always a complete but concise (and very understandable) explanation of the techniques he employed. Whether you are a beginner, or you have been doing serious amateur and professional photography for nearly forty years (as I have), I'd bet you can learn something from this book. Of three bookcases full of books on photography, this is one of the few that I consider indispensible. Highly recommended.
A 4-Star primer on composition for aspiring photographers February 4, 1998 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
The companion to Peterson's "Understanding Exposure". Basic fundamentals of composition demonstrates that seeing creatively is an acquired skill that can be developed. All Peterson's books deserve a place on your shelf.
