Flower & Garden Photography

Rating:
Summary: Useful and practical
Review: This a very valuable introduction to the topic. The writer doesn't spend a lot of time on technical stuff although he briefly outlines equipment needed ,lenses, camera formats, types of film and accessories. Then he moves quickly to the real meat of the topic, such as photographing flowers, trees, wide landscapes, close-ups, indoor plants etc.

He is the ideal person to write a book on flower and garden photography as his work has appeared in some of our finest magazines, in calendars, greeting cards and art posters. He has lectured at some of our most prestigious art museums. He has over 150,000 stock images, but best of all the man can write. He understands what a newcomer to the hobby might want to know and he lays it all out for the reader logically, readably and illustrated with his own superb photographs. There's plenty of sound advice along with the tips of the trade for getting more interesting and higher quality shots.

For photographers wanting to sell their garden photographs the writer explains what editors are looking for and how to present and market your photographs. He even gives you sample model releases and authorization for publication.

I can highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to improve their garden and flower photography.

Review: This book is very easy to follow and gives a great deal of information about the different aspects of photographing both individual flowers and floral scenes. I was impressed with the detail in such a short book. The author gets right to the point and specifics that make good pictures. I would reccomend this to other gardeners who have trouble producing pictures to reflect how the plant really looks. I am buying another copy for a dear friend.
