The Best Digital Scrabooking Guide!
This is an amazing book! I'm typically skeptical when it comes to books on technology because I'm a technology teacher. Often these books are far too "Beginners Based" for me to stay interested. However, this book is totally different. I found myself reading through it like it was a best selling novel! This book comes with a CD that has three complete digital scrapbooking kits. For each ...

Enhance your understanding on photography
I like the way of George's writing on photography, especially this books does not cover the technical stuffs like F-stop, shutter speed and etc. I like particularly on the explanation of some images may not take as intentionally. We may not think of the possible emotional impact that may create but certainly we conclude that the picture taken will suit your photograhic requirement, at least. ...

Real answers to Real Questions
When I first heard there was an FAQ about Lightroom in the works, I had my doubts. I have seen too many books that claimed to be Frequently Asked Questions that were in fact a collection of tips reverse-engineered into a question format. As a Lightroom author myself I spend a share of my time in the Adobe Lightroom User-to-User forum answering questions all the while trying to get a feel for the ...

Excellent and Friendly Book on Improving Digital Images
As a university photo professor, I'm fairly familiar with the various texts that deal with digital image workflow and improvements in Photoshop and other programs. I receive several books during a year, each publisher hoping my school will adopt their book as a require text for our many students. Many are good in specific areas, but I've never found one that was perfect for my own needs, and ...

how to get the most out of your camera
Even simple point-and-shoot digital cameras offer manual control over parameters such as aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity that can turn snapshots into great photos. When you graduate to a Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera you have wasted your money unless you know how to make the best use of its sophisticated controls. This concise book does an excellent introductory job. The ...

Kudos to Tim Grey
I can't really add anything to Gordon Schultz's review except to say that I agree with it 100%. Tim Grey has written an excellent book in a very user-friendly format which is chock full of information on every aspect of digital photography. If you're into RAW conversions, Photoshop editing, and home printing then unless you're an experienced pro, you need this book. I simply can't recommend it ...

On Digital Photography
I rate this 5 stars based on its comprehensive content. However this book is not for casual photographers. It is very detailed and rather technical. Much of it gets too involved in lengthy explanations and I am a firm believer in K.I.S.S. If you are a techie,you will love it !!

Refreshing new ideas for the medium-advanced scrapbooker!
I have looked and wasted so much money buying scrapbooking books here and there for these tiny bits of "goodness" in them. When this book arrived I realized I finally found a true inspiration book - no fluff, no fillers, no really basic-how-to-scrapbook instructions. Everytime I open this book I become entralled with the examples....(Ooohhh, I NEED to do that next time...WAAYY TOO COOL!). If ...

Wonderful cross section of Lith Printing
I started lith printing about a year ago (based on Tim's other lith printing book) and haven't stopped since. This book shows examples of different styles and techniques that really helped me to understand what it possible. Since there are few references on the subject, this book provides needed inspriation to those of us that want to become better lith printers. The only shortcoming is that ...

good reference book for starting a home darkroom
There are plenty of illustrations in this book, but they are only sketches or drawings. This book has some ideas that may be outdated or simply not economical. For instance, making an entire darkroom sink, painting it, preparing it for sealing, and all that, not to mention the worrying about leaks, etc. Could be better suggested that an economical sink under 100.00 be purchased... Too much ...

An excellent technical reference
Concisely written in Adams' own scholarly style, "The Negative" is a valuable resource for photographers learning the foundation of technically correct (as opposed to generally good) base exposure in a variety of scenes, both pedestrian and those that are more conflicting. One must, however, consider that more than 4 decades have passed since the techniques were founded and the technology ...

The only book on this you will ever need!
I've been wanting both of her books for awhile now and I finally splurged and got both of them (the Polaroid Manipulations book that concentrates on the SX-70 manip process). When I first flipped through this book I was blown away and amazed by the content. This book is the number one resource for helping you along with your Polaroid transfers and emulsion lifts. It is HIGHLY informative. The ...
