Book Reviews of Night And Low-Light Photography: A Complete Guide

Book Review: Night and Low Light Photography by Bob Gibson & Peter Wilson
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a most excellent book on the subject. The fact that no one else has written a review of it is amazing. They must all be out there at night with a flashlight, reading it.......

First written in 1987, it has been reprinted in '93, 94, 95, and 97. The information contained in this well written book is very much in time with today's tools and technology.

These gentlemen seem to have covered every possible low light, long exposure, and flash inhanced shooting situation that you can imagine. And a lot more!

I could try to list all of the low light situations that they cover in this book, but to do so runs the risk of my forgetting to include the item that you are looking for. Believe me, the authors did not forget that which you are seeking. Gibbons & Wilson have covered everyone's interests.

My main interest in low light level photography came from shooting landscapes at night, only using the moon as a light souce. The results are awesome. Sometimes ephemeral, always soft and perhaps other-worldly, the results lend a pleasing effect to what might otherwise have been just another ho-hum scene.

Besides covering my interest, this book goes on to give me the info that I need for using my camera after dark in more ways than I could ever dream of. It's like they are giving away professional secrets or somethin'.

Of course it is very well illustrated. After all it is about photography. Where neccessary, the lads have included charts and diagrams to help make the subject easier to grasp.

Buy it.

Use it.

Don't forget your tripod!
