I
finished Davis’ book with mixed feelings.
The book contains a great deal of information for all levels of
photographers. It also contains examples
on almost every page along with lens and exposure information and either a
description of the subject, a description of technique, or both. Unfortunately, because of the wealth of
photos I found myself wanting to go back and forth between text and
descriptions and photos which made keeping focus difficult. The first third of the book concentrates more
on Davis’ landscape philosophy and the final part of the book focuses more on
technique. Probably not the best book
for the point-and-shoot or smart phone photographer, I would recommend this
book to SLR and medium format photographers with an interest in landscape
photography. Bill Fryman
