Book Reviews of Digital Travel Photography Digital Field Guide
Book Review: Sensational, Full-Color Travel Photography How-To!
Summary: 5 Stars
My recent trip to France just wouldn't have been the same had I not carefully studied this book before I left, and put the author's advice to work. The book is surprisingly slim for the amount of information it contains, and slips right into your carry-on bag. It's as essential as a passport for any traveler (although those remaining in the USA will find it useful, too.)
Seasoned traveler and photographer David D. Busch serves as your friendly advisor through the maze of details you need to consider before you leave on your trip, and then serves as a knowledgeable tour guide who shows you how to get the best pictures in a variety of typical travel situations. I learned what to take, and what to leave behind, and how to handle running out of memory card space (I had no idea so many souvenir shops offer a CD copying service!) There was a refresher course on photography basics, and a mammoth chapter with suggestions on taking photos of scenery, landscapes, city life, traveling companions, and dozens of other picture opportunities.
All this was illustrated with wonderful full-color photos that showed not only famous landmarks, like the Taj Mahal and Great Wall of China, but more typical shots of European streets, secluded beaches, and ancient monuments. All in all, this was a very satisfying book, and a real bargain at its price.
