1 out of 5 stars Not worth it   January 31, 2003
 4 out of 11 found this review helpful

I think this book is just not worth being a "photo book". First
of all, the pictures in the book are not at all impressive. The
print paper quality is quite sub-standard. I didnt expect
a book from a "photo publishing house" to be of such a low
quality. I will not buy another photosecrets book ever
again. I am going to try out Michael Frye's book instead.

someone wants to buy this one from me :)


1 out of 5 stars Not for Serious Photographers!   November 12, 2002
 6 out of 9 found this review helpful

I was greatly disappointed by the book and immediately returned it. This book contains ONLY so-called "drive-by shootings" - it's obvious this author made little efforts to capture the best lights or composition. These "snapshots" were mostly taken in the mid-day sun, when almost all advanced photographers avoid taking pictures. This book is probably intended for tourists on a bus-tour, but not for serious photographers.

If you have money to waste on this book, buy two copies of "The Photographer's Guide to Yosemite" by Michael Frye. The latter book is truly a work of art and I was deeply inspired by every image in it. It's hard to believe these two books - on the other extremes - are priced about the same.


5 out of 5 stars photography class material   July 18, 2001
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

I took this book with me to Yosemite in Fall of '00. My plan was to take B&W photos to be developed in a photography class I was taking. We had only had 2 classes before my departure for YNP, so I had a grasp on the basics of depth of field and shutter speed, but I was depending on my instinct for composition and lighting.

This book was fabulous! It helped me know how to set up the shots I wanted, and the pictures were a great guide for planning our short visit to the park. Also, the tips about protecting my camera on Mist Trail and others were much appreciated.

When I developed the B&W photos in class, I was amazed! They were gorgeous!

This book is a must-get for the novice photographer visiting NYP. I will purchase more in the series as we continue to travel!


5 out of 5 stars Photograph Your Memories   June 7, 2000
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I brought a disposable, a 35mm automatic and an APS camera. If you follow the suggestions and tips on how, when and where to take pictures, you can't go wrong with capturing the majesty of Yosemite. With its color photos and maps, it's a great tour guide too. It's a must have, if you're planning to visit Yosemite.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent photography book... Great tour guide, too.   February 24, 2000
This book gives you the time and location for taking pictures in Yosemite. If you follow it's suggestions, you cannot help but take GREAT pictures! The maps and the pictures in the book also serve as pretty good references for trip planning. Well worth it!
