Book Reviews of How to Shoot Great Travel Photos

Book Review: Now in colour!
Summary: 5 Stars

Well Susan McCartney has done it yet again. For those of us in the travel photography business, and for anybody aspiring to enter, Travel Photography: A Complete Guide to How to Shoot and Sell is the bible. But one thing I always wished it had more of was photographs. Lots of big colour ones. How to shoot great travel photos not only solves that problem but it also goes beyond to cover anything and everything you could ever want to know about how to travel and photograph the world.
A quick glance over the index will show you that this is a very in-depth book. Want to know how to go about charging your equipment overseas? Covered. Want to know what lenses to take? Covered. Should you shoot film or digital? Read on to find out.
But reading the index only tells half the story. It's the way that Susan McCartney presents the information that makes this book shine. Clearly, concisely and in such an interesting way that if you're not inspired to be both a better photographer and traveller after reading this book then I'm afraid there's no hope for you!
One problem I find a lot of travel photography books have is that they talk about the techniques in a general sense and you come away thinking that it's more a book about just photography and not so much about travel. One read of any of Ms McCartney's book and you'll realise that the travel is an integral part of whatever she does. She loves the people and places she visits as much as the photography and that is a very important fact.
If you can't imagine travel without photography, or photography without travel then I highly recommend this book.
