Summary: Great Beginner's Guide
Review: I've been so many places while backpacking and was not able to bring back photographs that conveyed the depth of the wilderness' beauty. While researching more about outdoor photography, I ran across this book. It is a wonderful resource.

The handbook helps the beginning photographer (namely me) develop a grasp of they many details involved in photography. Terminology is explained in plain language, examples are provided as well as some illustrations. This book is also helpful, I believe, in educating the intermediate photographer who doesn't have much experience in outdoor shooting situations (remember, you have to go there to take the picture). I'm sure that the experienced professional won't gather anything new from this book but I don't see how anyone could not appreciate the magnificent scenery captured in this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Practical and handy
Review: One of a series of L.L. Bean handbooks, it provides a good introduction to outdoor photography. This is by no means for the experienced photographer as topics covered are more of a general nature and helpful to novices. Covering equipment to shooting techniques, this book is perfect for someone interested in photography. While the emphasis is on outdoor photography (obviously), the lessons are easily transferable to general practice. This book is easy to carry in your backpack, beside your camera. For more advanced and thorough techniques, I highly recommend any of the Ansel Adams series of "how to" books.
